About Me

I believe in a brighter future for Colorado. That’s why I decided to run for the Colorado House of Representatives.

I BELIEVE…


    Colorado should be a leader in public and higher education, preparing our students for the job market of the 21st Century.
    Colorado should be the Silicon Valley of Renewable Energy, leading the way for the nation in the development of renewable and alternative energy.
    Every Coloradan must have access to quality, affordable health care.
    Colorado must support the growth of local small businesses while also developing creative new programs to attract companies to expand into or relocate to Colorado.

    Colorado must develop a strategic, long-term fiscal plan that addresses the challenges we face today and builds a sound foundation for the future.
    Colorado needs and deserves leaders who bring their experience and expertise in the private sector to public service and who will build coalitions and consensus without compromising our core Democratic principles.
    Voters in House District 6 need a leader with the vision, commitment and ability to effectively represent them in the State House who will reach beyond partisan politics to find solutions that work and bring business and community leaders to the table in partnership with government to build bridges to even better days ahead for Colorado.

In the months ahead, I look forward to meeting you to share my vision for addressing the challenges that face Colorado and my ideas about what we can do to create an even brighter future for our community and future generations. Even more importantly, I want to hear from you and learn about your concerns and how I can best serve you as your next State Representative. I hope to earn your support, your trust and your vote in the Democratic Primary in August..

If there are ever any ideas you'd like to share or if you'd like to schedule a time to talk, please use the " Contact Us " form on my campaign website.
