I am proud to be running to represent House District 67 and give the people a real choice in this election. I chose to raise my family and build my future in Collin County, Texas because I know it is a great place to live. Before I moved to Texas about 15 years ago, I had been a server and bartender, but I knew something else better was out there for me. During the Great Recession, I moved to Texas by putting my possessions in my car and driving towards the hope of opportunities. I have now built a successful career and started my family. I want to ensure that my family and other future generations have the same opportunity to build a successful life in this great state that we call home.
I have been married to my wonderful wife, Kelly, for 7 years and am the proud step father of two teenage children. I currently work for a Fortune 500 corporation and am heavily involved in my children's extracurricular activities. You'll often see our family's best friends on the campaign trail with me: our dogs, Charlotte the Goldendoodle, Kane the Great Pyrenees, and Lela the Maltipoo.
The truth is that I'm not much different from many of you. I'm a family man who believes in freedom and the great opportunities Texas can provide. I was raised in a conservative household outside of Detroit. As I grew older I realized that there was a lack of basic compassion in these values and began to view myself as a Democrat. I was involved in our community organizations before becoming a Collin County Democratic Precinct Chair.
I am inspired by my family every day. Our future generations deserve to be able to thrive and trust that their government is working for us all. Our state is facing a list of devastating issues, but many of these can be solved with common sense legislation. I will work towards real change, including repealing the abortion ban, increasing funding for our public schools, and fighting the voter suppression laws that threaten our democracy.
I believe in representing all Texans. I will listen to my constituents to understand the issues that are affecting our community daily and utilize the office to work towards true solutions for us all. I look forward to earning your vote for Texas House of Representatives District 67 in the November 2022 General Election.
