It is an honor to serve the people of District 18 in the Idaho legislature. I want to thank all of you who emailed, wrote or called me with ideas and concerns during my first two terms as your Representative. Thanks, also, to all who attended the District 18 forums with Senator Kelly, Rep. Branden Durst and me. We had great discussions about what was happening in each session.  This summer, I will once again be going door to door to connect with the citizens living in District 18. I want to hear about your interests, your concerns and how I can be of assistance to you.

I am a working person who has spent nearly 30 years as a Medical Technologist in hospital laboratories. Now, I own my own business as a commercial photographer. I understand first hand the challenges we are facing—a slow economy and a jobless market.  This is an important election. Ultra conservatives who are out of touch with District 18 are trying to take back our district. I am a moderate voice for this district and will work hard to work for common sense solutions.

I ask the people of District 18 for your trust, your support, and your votes on November 2.
