We must work to prevent sexual violence before it happens through stronger education, early intervention, and community-based prevention programs. I will work to expand age-appropriate consent and healthy relationship education, strengthen prevention efforts in schools and communities, and ensure Indiana invests in evidence-based strategies that address sexual violence at its roots.

Transparency means keeping constituents informed about the decisions being made on their behalf and being honest about both successes and challenges. I am committed to open communication, accessible leadership, and ensuring the people of District 26 always know where I stand on the issues that matter most.

Local communities know their needs best. I believe decisions should be made as close to the people as possible, giving local governments the flexibility to address challenges and create solutions that reflect the priorities of their residents.

A strong education system is essential to Indiana's future. I support investing in quality schools, supporting teachers, and expanding opportunities for students to gain the skills they need to succeed in college, the workforce, or skilled trades. Every student deserves access to an education that prepares them for a successful future.

Mental Health

Mental health challenges affect every community in Indiana. I believe we must improve access to care, support early intervention, and strengthen local resources so individuals and families can get help before a crisis occurs. By investing in mental health, we can build stronger communities and improve quality of life across our state.
