I am in favor of construction of a wall and other necessary infrastructure on our border that gives complete control over entering and exiting the United States.

Strongly Agree

Governments should not discriminate against individuals, organizations or small businesses because of their belief that marriage is only a union of one man and one woman.

Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?

None

What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?

The Founders understood man's nature and failure into Sin. Therefore they created a system that limits our governments ability to usurp the authority of the divine through a system of separated power. The Constitution is the embodiment of that limit and division.

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

Deeply devoted to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I strive every day to uphold the Judeo-Christian values upon which our nation was founded. I am an Episcopalian and prefer high church because of how I was raised. My children attend the only Episcopalian school in Ohio and are being raised the same way.

When you consider your views on a wide range of issues from economic and social matters to foreign policy and immigration, which of the following best describes you overall?

Very Conservative

Please provide publicly available information validating your answer to the previous question.

Since I have never run for public office, I do not have a public record. I do have a lifetime of public philanthropy and charitable work to point to however. Words are one thing. Deeds are better.

What is the best way to bring down unemployment?

Remove regulatory restrictions that prohibit entrepreneurs from expanding and creating jobs. Since the late 1970's almost all new job growth can be attributed to start-ups.

How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?

We need to reform healthcare that removes government mandates, regulations from the equation while moving away from an employer based system. Injecting free-market principles into the healthcare market (which operates nothing like a free-market) is the first step.

What role should government play in boosting the economy?

Get out of the way of the private sector and the American people.

What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?

I am a lifelong resident of Butler County. My candidacy is not based on a desire for personal glory or gain, but rather to ensure our community is represented in a positive and dignified manner.
