My Experience

PUBLIC SERVICE

I am finishing my first term in the legislature in the House of Representatives. I appreciate the privilege to represent you at the state level and am asking for your support for a 2nd term. 

One of the keys to cutting wasteful government spending is to have a clear picture of how your tax dollars are being used. That’s why I supported and fought for the new budgeting process that shines greater light on the budgets and spending of government agencies. Additionally, I was a lead sponsor of HB708, a bill to rein in government agencies and bring accountability, transparency and protection of your taxpayer dollars that have been unfairly shielded from public view. I will always defend your right, as a taxpayer, to know how your tax dollars are being spent.

I have spent nearly 20 years working at the grass-roots level to elect conservative leaders in Idaho and our country. I have walked neighborhoods, organized forums, spoken with voters, waved signs, phone banked and spent countless hours to elect freedom-loving conservative leaders.

From 2018-2022 I served in various capacities in the Republican party at the precinct, district, and county level. 

Throughout my political experience I have built a strong network within our district, county and the entire state of Idaho. I have a track record of working with other Republicans to solve problems, fight the liberal agenda and elect men and women who love liberty and understand the proper role of government

BUSINESS  

I believe strongly that the backbone of a good economy is a free market where businesses, small and large, can thrive. I have spent my professional career in the business field, helping businesses of all sizes and have started and sold several of my own.

Currently I am own and operate an ecommerce company. I know what it is like to face the burden of government on the back of small business and I am committed to protecting our economic freedom.

I also have experience as a business consultant. As owner of my own consulting business, I worked with clients all over the nation to improve their companies. Analyzing data and spotting inefficiencies is a passion and strength of mine.

The companies I have worked for and the 50+ clients I’ve consulted have raised millions of dollars and saved millions dollars from my efforts. I have used those financial skills at the Idaho State House to keep millions of dollars in the taxpayers’ pockets.

EDUCATION 

My own education has always been important to me, and with 4 young children my commitment to education continues. In addition to holding a number of graduate and post-graduate degrees, I have also taught courses at Brigham Young University-Idaho and the University of Utah.

  • Master of Business Administration (MBA) – University of Utah, 2013
  • Master of Accounting (MAcc) – Brigham Young University, 2008
  • Bachelor of Accounting – Brigham Young University, 2008
