Service has always been at the core of who I am. From a young age, I felt a responsibility to contribute to something bigger than myself and to help protect and strengthen our country. That commitment began at 17, when I joined the United States Army. Like many Americans of my generation, I was shaped by the events of September 11th. Watching the Twin Towers fall while sitting in a third‑grade classroom made it clear to me that freedom and security are never guaranteed; they require men and women willing to step forward and serve. After leaving active duty, I built a life, a career, and a family here at home. But I’ve always felt that same sense of responsibility calling me forward again, this time to serve in a different capacity. I believe leadership means accountability, humility, and the willingness to make difficult decisions in the best interest of future generations. Our country faces serious challenges, and Michigan feels them every day. Families are struggling with affordability. Government spending is out of control. Trust in institutions has eroded. And too often, political leaders focus on division instead of solutions.
Our children deserve schools that prioritize learning, critical thinking, and personal development, not political or corporate agendas. We must invest in strong educational foundations, safeguard children's well-being, and ensure families have a voice in their children's education and upbringing. I'm not running to be a career politician. I'm running to serve, with discipline, accountability, and a commitment to leaving this country stronger than we found it. This moment requires leadership, and I believe our generation has both the responsibility and the capability to step forward and deliver it.
Americans deserve a government that works for them, not against them. I believe in limited government, transparency, and restoring trust by focusing on results instead of rhetoric. While I am a conservative Republican, I believe leadership means representing all constituents with integrity and respect.
For decades, Washington has spent beyond its means under both parties, leaving our children with trillions in debt. Reckless spending fuels inflation and erodes the value of every dollar working families earn. We need to control spending, eliminate waste, and ensure taxpayer dollars are used responsibly, here at home, for the people who earned them.
