People First
Our district consists mostly of townships, many of them rural. We moved to Columbia Station in 1995 for more space, smaller class sizes and a larger sense of community. While the rural areas in my township have grown smaller, farmers and agriculture are still a top priority in district townships and villages along with zoning, funding, safety, roads and environmental issues.

Freedom
Freedom to control your own body.
Freedom to love who you love and be who you are.
Equality for all. Full stop.

Dignity in Work
My mother was a Teamster and I support unions. I have been working since I was 14, carrying two jobs during the summer to pay for college tuition. But Ohioans shouldn’t have to work two low-paying jobs just to get by.
Every Ohioan deserves the dignity of a secure job with decent wages and good benefits.

Opportunity with Public Education
Every child deserves a good, solid education regardless of where they live. They deserve one with a curriculum chosen by education specialists, not politicians or special interest groups.
Strong public schools along with career tech centers, community colleges or state universities provide our children with the critical thinking and job skills they need to succeed.
