Conservative republican
State Senate
Wayne County 8th district
Why are you running for office?
The road that our state is on cannot be maintained. I refuse to sit back and be a spectator any longer.
What is the biggest problem facing Michigan residents today and how would you solve it?
To much Government.
What's a better solution: finding revenue or cutting costs to meet Michigan's public education budget? How would you do it?
Cutting Cost. Michigan public schools are currently a bad investment for the people. When you have a bad investment do you continue to put your hard earned money into that investment? No! You get out of the investment and put your money somewhere else. Give the people more choices.
What's the best way to create jobs for Michigan residents?
Stop taxing the hell out of business, get out of their way and let them create the jobs. Government doesn't create jobs.
After you leave this earth, what will they say about you?
God Willing, they will say I was a husband who always tried to be his wife's knight in shining armor, a father who raised his kids well but never stopped being a kid himself, and a persistent fighter for individual liberty.
Get informed before you head to the polls. Stay up to date on the issues.
