How important was the influence of your parents?
They both are elected officials within the community. My inspiration for everything I do politically and throughout my life starts with what they do and what they have consistently exposed me to my entire life.
What does your generation bring to politics?
New innovative ways of thinking and accomplishing our goals. We bring a renewed sense of energy and a new look to the face of politics. I’d like to believe we also add a layer of love to how we approach our politics. We have been learning from the past in hopes to apply what we’ve learned to our future.
What does it mean to be a leader?
A leader is a servant. A leader knows how to be inclusive and keep an open mind. It means to be accountable. A leader sets a higher standard of excellence and inspires, motivates and encourages their team to be their best. A good leader is understanding and open to ideas.
