Expand all | Collapse all

  • Amidst widespread division and hate, I aspire to be a unifying force—bridging gaps rather than widening divides. We need representatives like myself who are not beholden to special interests but are driven by a genuine desire to serve the people they represent.
  • We can’t keep sending the same type of career politicians to Washington expecting new results. We need new voices and fresh perspectives to help fight some of the most pressing issues of the 21st century.
  • I want to be a leader who is a true representation of the people. I am committed to staying connected with constituents so I can always be the best voice for our district in Congress.
Womens rights, affordability, healthcare, gun control, mental health, education, foreign policy
I am a young energetic woman who is motivated to fight for real change.
I’d like to leave a better world for the next generation
Having a family member who suffers from mental illness, I have struggled to navigate the system throughout my adult life. I want to serve as a resource for people and make things easier, especially during hard times.
Some of the best leaders in Congress are those without previous experience in the government or politics. I believe we are facing very challenging times that requires leaders with diverse backgrounds and fresh perspectives.
I fully support term limits
