ABOUT DISTRICT 35 CAMPAIGN

The District 35 Campaign is about more than politics; it’s about possibility. It’s about building a future where every family, every worker, and every student in our community has the tools they need to thrive.
 

As a candidate for Arkansas State Representative in District 35, I’m running with a clear purpose: to fight for living wage jobs, world-class schools, and safe, thriving neighborhoods regardless of zip code. I bring nearly a decade of experience in government innovation and public service, along with a lifetime of lessons learned growing up right here in the Delta.
 

I’ve worked inside government agencies, across the tech industry, and alongside grassroots organizations to deliver real results. I’ve built programs that help everyday people gain digital skills, land good-paying jobs, and navigate complex systems. I know how to make things happen and I know who I’m doing it for.
 

District 35 is full of brilliance, strength, and untapped potential. I’m not here to maintain the status quo I’m here to shake up systems, challenge what’s broken, and build something better.

 

Because when we invest in our people, we all rise.
 

This campaign isn’t about me, it’s about us. It’s about writing a new chapter for District 35 that’s powered by innovation, grounded in opportunity, and driven by love for our community.

​

Let’s build it together.
