Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a follower of Christ. We are born free because of what Christ bore for us on the cross. Because of this sacrifice, we are forgiven for our shortcomings, and are called to continuously seek His ways. We desperately need the unapologetic restoration of God in our government and schools, to give the lost, confused, or parentless the guidance and peace that God provides. Here in America, we believe that we are born equal, and free.

Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
I am a constitutional conservative, owner of a cell phone tower development firm here in Boca Raton, FL. I am a mother, speed and agility coach and mentor of young women seeking to recognize their full potential in both their career and purpose. I believe in a strict America first agenda and encourage other countries to put the interest of their own people first, as well. We are called to be the example of a free nation and I intend to remind Congress of the same. We are facing internal threats like this nation has not seen since our founding and I am ready to aggressively challenge those attacks on our great nation and its founding principles. I oppose any growth in government and believe we need a drastic reduction in the size of our government and its continued overreach.
