“With a background in the study of public safety, it is no surprise that I am concerned about this for Illinois. I believe that certain elements of the SAFE-T Act make Illinois less safe, such as no cash bail, enabling certain drug offenses as misdemeanors.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection (2024))
“As I have knocked on over 1600 + doors during this campaign, I have developed a passion for families facing mental health challenges. I have been touched by the families who are facing some of the most difficult life circumstances that one could imagine.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection (2024))
“The loss of our beautiful 26 year old daughter in a head-on collision with a driver who never should have been on the road.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection (2024))
