Values
In the Northeast Kingdom, every person deserves the opportunity to thrive, to build a life rooted in dignity, stability, and community. I believe our voices should be heard in Montpelier, and that leaders must stand with those working hard and those struggling to get by.
Everyone Matters
Policies should work for everyone, not just those with influence, power, money and access. I believe public policy must start from a simple principle: every person has worth, and every person deserves safety, dignity, and opportunity.
I will prioritize policies that address substance use with care, reduce homelessness, and ensure safety net programs are accessible, effective, and rooted in real community needs. My approach is focused on outcomes that protect and support all Vermonters—not just a select few.
Thrive, Not Just Survive
Policy should strengthen quality of life, financial stability, health, education, and overall well-being so people can move beyond survival and build secure, meaningful lives.
That means tackling housing shortages with real solutions, strengthening public education, improving access to affordable health care, and building resilient communities where people can put down roots and plan for the future.
People over Politics
Policy should reflect community needs and lived realities and not partisan division or special interests.
I believe government works best when it listens first and leads with integrity. Too often, decisions are shaped by political strategy, outside influence, or short-term positioning instead of what communities actually need.
