America Just Turned 250. Nevada’s Elections Should Too.
The United States just marked 250 years of independence — two and a half centuries since we broke free from tyranny and declared that government answers to the people. Now it’s time for Nevada to declare a kind of independence of its own — one that matters right here at home.

Declare Your Independence–From Partisan Politics!
For too long, our elections have been clouded by division, distrust, and the influence of major party machines that put loyalty to the party ahead of service to the people. Nevadans from all backgrounds — Republicans, Democrats, independents, and non-partisans — are tired of it. We deserve elections we can trust, where every lawful voter can participate and every legal ballot is counted accurately.
That is why I am running for Nevada Secretary of State as an #YourIndependentVoice.
Nevadans approved Voter ID through Question 7 in the last general election. I believe it will pass again this coming election. If the constitutional amendment receives final approval, we must be ready to implement it efficiently and fairly. I am the only candidate with a clear, practical plan to make this happen. With 20 years of experience as a litigation paralegal drafting legal documents and navigating complex statutes, plus 20 years as a computer systems analyst, I have already developed an implementation plan and statutory language to help Nevadans transition smoothly.
My focus is simple and straightforward: protect lawful voters, strengthen election integrity, and restore public confidence — without unnecessary barriers or partisan games.
The problem is real. When people doubt the fairness of our elections, it weakens our democracy and divides our communities. Families, small business owners, veterans, and working Nevadans all pay the price when trust erodes.
The solution is ready. As Secretary of State, I will implement Voter ID in a common-sense way that honors the will of Nevada voters. Technology should serve transparency. Government should serve accountability. And elections should belong to the people — not the parties.
Imagine Nevada leading the way with elections that are secure, accessible, and trusted by all. That is the outcome we can achieve together.
As we mark this milestone anniversary, join me in declaring your independence from the old partisan playbook. Choose #YourIndependentVoice — a candidate who solves problems for a living and puts Nevada first.
