Candidate in race for U.S. House District 2 on Tuesday, May 21, 2024
I was born in Bowling Green, Kentucky and I have lived in the area my entire life. I went to Warren East High School and Western Kentucky University, and I am now teaching at Warren East High School, Middle School, and the four elementary schools that lead into Warren East Middle School. The subject I am teaching is string orchestra. During my time in high school, I participated in the band program. I later went to Western Kentucky University to get a music education degree. As a student at WKU, I worked at a local Mcdonald's first as a grill cook, and then eventually as a swing shift manager until I started my teaching career. Currently, I am the newest member on the Plum Springs City Commission.
During my time as both a student, a worker at McDonald's, and now an educator, I have seen the issues plaguing working-class Americans in Kentucky. The issues we are currently facing have been the same issues that we faced when I was a young man entering high school. It is time we have a change in leadership in Washington, and I believe we can make that change for the betterment of our commonwealth.
I do not support withholding student loans or financial aid for students caught with cannabis. Supports home grows for individuals. Believes it should be legalized and regulated for responsible use by adults.
I support eliminating these criminal penalties for responsible use of cannabis.
