- Having the benefit of a robust professional life places me in an advantageous position as a future legislator. Coupled with my volunteer work, I have gained the skills necessary to serve others, while keeping colleagues motivated to achieve shared goals. Effective leaders share the same skills as effective legislators. Both depend on the ability to communicate an objective to people who don't always share the same viewpoint, and both know how to inspire and bring the best out of those whose support they need to achieve those objectives.
- It is important for younger generations to be involved in local democracy. At my age I have the ability to bridge the communication between generations and build positive consensus. There is also hope that I inspire more from my generation and younger to become involved in upholding conservative values in their community.
- I have skin in the game and am in the thick of it. I will work every day for working families across the state and in my district because I am one of those families. I first hand understand your concerns and visions.

Scorecards
Ascorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
