Texas isn’t just where I live, it’s my home, my heritage, and my responsibility to protect. I’m running for office to be your voice in Austin, fighting for the conservative values, freedoms, and way of life that make Texas strong.

We call East Texas home, this is where I learned early on the importance of faith, family, and hard work. As a rancher, business owner, and advocate for our community, I understand firsthand the challenges Texans face, and I’m ready to fight for you.

My husband, Charlie, and I have built our lives here, running a heavy equipment sales and refurbishing business for over 30 years. We’ve also spent 25 years raising cattle in the Davy Crockett National Forest alongside our son, Caleb. Our family is deeply rooted in Texas values, and our faith is at the center of everything we do. We are blessed to be members of Harmony Hill Baptist Church.

I’ve dedicated my life to serving Texans and defending conservative principles. My experience includes:

These roles have given me the experience, resilience, and unwavering commitment to stand up for the people of East Texas.

I’m blessed to be a mother of three incredible sons. Our middle son serves as a Lt. Colonel in the U.S. Space Force, and our oldest son runs his own heavy equipment business. Our youngest son, Caleb, has special needs, which inspired my advocacy work.

For me, this campaign isn’t just about politics, it’s about protecting our families, our faith, our businesses, and our freedoms for generations to come. I will never back down from the fight to keep Texas strong.

Like you, I love East Texas. It's our home. You're my neighbor. That's why I'm so involved in ensuring that our voices are heard by those we elect.
 
I've advocated for us as Vice Chair of the Trinity County Republican Party, serving the Republican Party of Texas as a delegate, and I coordinate with County Chairs, Republican Clubs, and conservative women's groups to promote building bridges of communication.
 
Being Mom to our Special Needs youngest son motivated me to start Voices 4 Special Needs – East Texas in 2012, at the urging of our former State Representative James White. Through this Non-profit, we continue to advocate for SN families throughout East Texas.

In 2002, I founded Beautiful Gate Translations to coordinate translations of Bible Studies, books, and tracts, into foreign languages. I continue to serve as President with a passion to help women in Eastern European countries and to bring hope and healing after the ravages of Communist control.

The experience and wisdom gained during my career as a Contracts Manager in the global Engineering/Construction industry provide a solid foundation to lead the non-profits.
 
What's important to know is that I am a fighter. With my husband Charlie, I've been the co-owner of a heavy equipment sales and refurbishing business for over 30 years.  Alongside Charlie and our third son, Caleb, we have raised cattle over 25 years in the Davy Crockett National Forest. Our middle son serves as a Lt. Colonel in the US Space Force, and our oldest son is the owner of a heavy equipment sales and refurbishing business, as well. Family is everything and I feel so blessed.
 
This is home, and we need to protect it. I hear that from you everywhere I go, and that's exactly what I will do when I get to Austin for you.
