Reason for Seeking Public Office:
I am running not as a single issue candidate, but as someone who believes we must do what we can to respond to the issues that impact the quality of life in our homes, communities, state, nation, and planet. I have learned from my experience and developed skills to help create change. I want to take this experience to our state government, to help it better respond to the needs of its citizens all across the economic spectrum.
