Reason for seeking position:

Seeking the role of United States Senator of Nevada is a natural progression for someone like me. I have witnessed firsthand the challenges and opportunities faced by individuals and families in Nevada.

Through my corporate leadership, I have gained insights into the needs and concerns of businesses, allowing me to advocate for policies that support sustainable economic growth, job creation, and fair representation for Nevada’s entrepreneurs and workers.

My role as a program manager of a fatherhood fire program has exposed me to the struggles faced by fathers who want to be present and supportive in their children’s lives. I have witnessed their determination to overcome obstacles and their desire to be positive role models. This program has provided them with the necessary tools, support, and resources to develop the skills and confidence needed to fulfill their responsibilities. This experience has ignited a passion within me to champion family-friendly policies that strengthen fatherhood, promote work-life balance, and address issues such as parental leave, childcare, and educational opportunities.

Additionally, working with reentry and families of children with disabilities, I have seen the gaps in our current system. I have witnessed the struggles faced by individuals transitioning back into society after incarceration and the barriers they encounter when seeking employment, housing, and support services. I have worked tirelessly to provide essential resources and initiatives that enable successful reentry and reduce recidivism rates. This experience has instilled in me a deep sense of commitment to criminal justice reform, advocating for rehabilitation programs and policies that promote reintegration, ensure fair treatment, and create opportunities for redemption.
