Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I believe that Jesus is my Lord and Savior and died on the cross that I might be forgiven of my sins and have eternal life. I have been born again (salvation) and have a deep personal relationship with Jesus Christ, which is a gift of grace and not of anything I have ever done or every will do. I believe that God should be placed first in my life, followed by my family and others.
ABOUT YOU
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.
I believe that my social media pages (Facebook and Instagram) validate my beliefs publicly.
What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
I have degrees and experience in the medical and education fields. My husband and I manage a small family cattle farm with my brother and I was raised on a farm, which allows me to understand a bit about agriculture. All of these areas have required balancing small to million dollar budgets. But more than this, I have a deep rooted love in my community, state and country, based on Christian values which include common sense and God's Word for guidance.
