As a conservative, I support the Republican platform and will work to promote our party's values and principles. I will attend every SCC meeting, defend our caucus system, and support positions that will strengthen our party and its influence. I currently work for Commissioner Bill Lee, and before that I worked on Mia Love's 2014 campaign team as her communications director. I have also spent these past two years as an unofficial "senior advisor" to our current Utah County GOP chairman. :) I hold a BA in political science from BYU and a JD from the University of Utah.

The state party is at a crossroads with SB54 and the future of the convention system. I am happy to continue to serve on the state central committee if that is the will of my senate district's delegates.

Currently serving on the State Central Committee and on the State Executive Committee. 100% attendance for both Committees. Served six years in legislature. This is an extremely important time for our party as we have filed a lawsuit against the state government for trying to dictate how we, as a private organization, will select our candidates. I have been in the middle of this fight the last two years and would like to see it through. You know me and my principles well as I knocked on almost everyone of your doors running for the open senate seat. I ask for your vote that I can continue to push our party to stand and fight for our caucus rights. I have a MACC and I am a CPA. I have worked in CA, AL, NC & UT in numerous industries and various accounting positions, such as, Auditor, Systems Consultant, Financial Analysis, Division Controller.

Support making the party a larger tent. Support preserving and defending the caucus system. Support our nominees after convention. I believe the party desperately needs younger representation. The youth vote is crucial not only locally, but nationally.

I have served as your representative on the SCC for the last 2 years, and in that time we've sent Sean Reyes' name to the Governor for approval (I helped campaign for him and was the first to commit to helping him); we've outlined the strategy for the lawsuit defending the Caucus system, as well as many other accomplishments for the Party. I will continue to represent you there, with your vote and continued support. Thank you very much.
