Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I believe that God is in complete control. I would not be running in this election if it were not for God. James 4, 10 Humble yourself before the Lord and he will lift you up.

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?

Conservative

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

I have passed a balanced budget each and every year of my career.

What is the best way to bring down unemployment?

Improve family values. Parents need to set examples for the younger generation who don't want to work in a job they feel is beneath them. We have a drug epidemic and many are not employable. Businesses are reluctant to invest in expansion if the workforce is not available.

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

Get government out of healthcare. Reduce regulations and open the market across state lines.

What role should government play in boosting the economy?

Get out of the way and let businesses grow without interference.

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

I have served four years as a Township Trustee and was elected and currently serving my third term as county commissioner. I believe that experience has taught me the understanding of local government and the struggles they face. Being a small business owner for twenty seven years has taught me the struggles of the business world.
