I believe we need strong, empathetic leadership that prioritizes the needs of Southern Maryland, Anne Arundel, and Prince George's counties, focusing on economic opportunity, accessible healthcare, and a sustainable future for all. I've seen firsthand the challenges facing our families, from rising costs to concerns about the future, and I'm ready to work tirelessly to address them.

  • How do you plan to represent the diverse interests of the 5th District, which includes urban, suburban, and rural areas, as well as federal employees and military families?

    Our district's diversity is its strength, and I am committed to being a representative for all its residents. I've spent extensive time listening to constituents across Calvert, Charles, St. Mary's, Anne Arundel, and Prince George's counties. My approach involves holding regular town halls, engaging with local businesses, visiting our federal installations like Patuxent River Naval Air Station and NASA Goddard, and ensuring that policies consider the unique needs of our agricultural communities, bustling towns, and those who serve our nation.

     I bring a fresh perspective, a proven track record of community involvement, and a deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing our district. My commitment is to hard work, transparency, and collaboration. I am not beholden to special interests and will always put the people of the 5th District first. My goal is to be a responsive and effective advocate, working across the aisle when necessary to deliver results for our communities.



  • What are your top priorities for strengthening our local economy and creating jobs in the 5th District?

    My top economic priorities include supporting our small businesses through access to capital and resources, investing in job training programs that align with the needs of our growing industries (including federal facilities), and advocating for infrastructure improvements that facilitate commerce and reduce commute times. I will also work to attract new businesses to the district and ensure that our federal employees and contractors have stable, well-paying jobs.

  • How will you address the rising cost of living and affordability challenges for families in the district?

    The rising cost of housing, groceries, and everyday necessities is a significant concern. I will advocate for policies that make housing more affordable, explore tax relief options for middle-class families, and work to bring down healthcare and prescription drug costs. I also believe in ensuring fair wages and protecting workers' rights to help families make ends meet.

  • What is your stance on healthcare access and affordability?

    Everyone deserves access to quality, affordable healthcare. I support strengthening the Affordable Care Act, protecting coverage for pre-existing conditions, and exploring options to lower prescription drug costs. I also believe in supporting our local healthcare providers and ensuring mental health services are readily available.

  • What are your plans for improving education and opportunities for our youth?

    Investing in education is investing in our future. I will champion increased federal funding for our public schools, support vocational training programs, and work to make higher education more affordable and accessible. I also believe in expanding access to early childhood education and ensuring our students have the resources they need to succeed in a competitive world.

  • How will you protect our environment and the Chesapeake Bay?

    The Chesapeake Bay is a vital natural resource and economic driver for our region. I am committed to working with state and local partners to implement effective conservation measures, reduce pollution, and protect our waterways and natural spaces for future generations. This includes supporting initiatives that address climate change and promote sustainable practices.

  • What is your approach to ensuring public safety and supporting law enforcement in our communities?

    Safe communities are essential. I support providing our law enforcement agencies with the resources and training they need to keep our neighborhoods secure, while also advocating for community-based violence prevention programs and addressing the root causes of crime.

  • How do you plan to stay connected with constituents and ensure accountability if elected?

    My commitment to being "on the side of the people" means maintaining open lines of communication. I will hold regular town halls throughout the district, maintain an accessible constituent services office, utilize digital platforms to gather feedback, and always prioritize answering your questions and addressing your concerns. My door will always be open.
