Campaign Pillars
Agriculture
Protecting Generational Farms
For six generations, my family has lived and worked the Idaho farm life. Agriculture is my business, my livelihood, and my legacy.
But across Idaho, family farms are disappearing. Rising production costs, increasing regulation, property taxes on agricultural land, and uncertainty around water access are putting pressure on the next generation of farmers.
We must do more than preserve agriculture—we must protect its future.
I will work to ensure Idaho agriculture remains strong by protecting water resources, supporting farmers and producers, and making sure family farms can continue for generations to come.
Idaho agriculture built our communities. It deserves leadership that understands it.
Education
Strengthening Idaho’s Classrooms
For more than ten years I have served in Idaho schools as a guest teacher and coach. I have worked in over one hundred classrooms with students from many different backgrounds: student athletes, English language learners, refugee students, and students with special needs.
Every student deserves an environment where they can learn, grow, and succeed.
Education is not just about textbooks and tests—it is about the relationships students build with teachers, coaches, friends, and mentors that shape their future.
I believe Idaho must continue strengthening its education system, so every student has the opportunity to succeed.
Mental Health
Supporting Idaho Families
Through my experience in both agriculture and education, I have had a front-row seat to a growing challenge across Idaho: mental health.
Farmers face enormous stress and uncertainty. Students face pressures that previous generations never experienced. Families across our communities are struggling.
Mental health is health.
We must expand access to mental health resources, strengthen support systems within our judicial and healthcare systems, and ensure Idaho families can get help when they need it.
No one should feel like they are facing these struggles alone.
