OTHER :
After spending my career in public service, I'm ready to serve East Anchorage and fight for education, jobs, and public safety. I will focus on the concerns my neighbors are bringing up at my thousands of door knocks. I grew up in rural America where I learned the value of hard work, community, and giving back. If elected, I will bring that same can-do attitude to Juneau, and will work hard to represent the people of Northeast Anchorage.
