I’m a proud St. Joseph native—born and raised in this community, a graduate of Central High, and a Missouri Western alum. While earning my degree, I worked full-time at Clarios on Pear Street, gaining real-world experience and a deep respect for hard work. I was raised in a Christian home, attending Calvary Chapel, and my faith continues to guide every decision I make. I understand this community because I’ve lived it—and I’m ready to fight for it.

Now, as I finish my final year at Mizzou Law, I’ve gained valuable hands-on experience working with local municipalities and the state senate, giving me valuable insight into how government truly operates. Outside the classroom, I mentor youth through Big Brothers Big Sisters and volunteer at local food banks because giving back to the community is important to me. Coming from a hardworking family that values public service, I’m deeply committed to the Smith 4 Tenth movement and to building a stronger, better St. Joe. I hope to earn your vote and your trust.
