Economy

I will support legislation that helps small business thrive, create jobs, and support their workers with quality pay and benefits. Learn more

Education

It is my belief that in order for students to reach their potential, they require a safe and quality learning environment that promotes a growth mindset and 21st century skills. Every student can be successful, regardless of ability-level, but they must be provided with the correct tools. The state has a responsibility to ensure that students are provided with these tools regardless of zip code, property values, or socioeconomic status. Learn more

I will also advocate for seeking a funding formula that relies less on property taxes. But, serving students in primary and secondary schools is not where my work will stop. We must also ensure that our vocational schools, colleges, and universities are accessible and affordable. Learn more

It all begins with education. An educated population spurs job creation and retention, good wages, lower crime rates, an improved quality of life, and a sense of civic pride, among many other benefits. Learn more

The state should no longer impose partially or unfunded mandates onto our schools. It is not fair to add expenses without providing the funding, as this requires them to go back to the local taxpayers to make up the difference. All schools receiving public funding should be held accountable on a level playing field. Learn more

Environment / Energy

Lake Erie and its watershed are important assets that we must protect. Learn more

Wages / Job Benefits

I will advocate for my fellow educators and paraprofessionals. The state must commit to attracting and retaining the best and the brightest for our kids. This means that salaries and benefits must be commensurate with their required high levels of education and expertise. Learn more
