Question: When did you initially get involved with politics and how long have you been involved?
Answer: Politics and law have always been a deep consideration for me, I became politically active in my early twenties as I was running a business and engaging with the community through petitioning. From there, the door was opened.

Yes, this is my first time running for office.

Q: What are some of the more important issues in the 100 Mile House District?
We need to stimulate business and nurture opportunities for youth and elderly, from events and training to health and wellness, travel and support services.
