I am a lifelong Natrona County resident, Casper College and University of Wyoming alum, committed hard worker, and young person with a Wyoming First, Wyoming Forward vision.  

I’m running because I believe in empowering a new generation. We need a Wyoming vision of progress, principles, and passion in politics. I think we need change in leadership to accomplish this. 

I believe in listening to the community, leading with integrity, and fighting for pro-active and people-centered solutions. I believe in accountability and looking out for those among us who are struggling. I recognize that issues are rarely simply black and white, and understanding nuance is required to make real change last. That is why I believe in telling the truth as I understand it -- always. I’m committed to working on real, lasting solutions that move our state forward, not throwing out buzzwords and empty promises to see what sticks. That is why I believe in practical leadership.

We should expect nothing less of our leaders.

This is what real representation looks like. Pushing the needle while staying true to who and what matters — you, your interests, and Wyoming’s future.

Decisions are made by those who show up. Whether or not you decide to vote for me in this race, if elected, I will always try my best to do right by you.

My family has been in America since before its founding, arriving on my mom’s side as pilgrims and on my dad’s side as slaves. Over time, my family landed in Wyoming. 

I'm the fourth generation of my family to live in Wyoming and the third to be raised here. I went to school in Bar Nunn and in Casper. I am an alum of Casper College and of the University of Wyoming. I am proud of my Wyoming history -- it is as much a part of me as anything else. 

I am also a son, grandson, brother, cousin, and friend. I am a tutor, student, and first generation graduate. I am the product of Wyoming public schools, Wyoming values, and the American spirit. I am passionate about education, structural change, democracy, and contributing to a politics of hope, not fear.

I am a young person determined to change things for the better. This determination is clearly demonstrated in my life experiences.

Throughout my academic, political, and professional experiences, I have consistently been drawn to work that brings people together around shared goals. This is a large reason why I am running -- to put Wyoming First and to move Wyoming Forward around a shared vision of progress, principles, and passion.
