What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?

What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
As an attorney for over a decade I'm constantly exposed to challenging situations where I have to provide solutions to difficult problems. In an adversarial system I'm exposed to issues where I have to find common ground in order to achieve the best outcome for my clients. It is that experience that I will take to the Senate seat along with my serving heart to achieve what's best for Gwinnett.
