Colorado State Representative
US House of Representatives
Born and raised in Thornton, CO, my story is one of hard work, success, and the result of a community that rallied around me. I was the only child to a single mother who worked two jobs to make ends meet. Even though my mom worked hard, it was never enough to put dinner on the table and keep a roof over our heads. By the time I was eight, we were living out of our car.
I know what it’s like to not know where your next meal is going to come from, or open the fridge, and see nothing there. These experiences put a fight in my heart to ensure that other families don’t have to go through the same struggles my family did. As a Daniels scholar I graduated from the University of Denver in 2008 with a degree in Real Estate/Finance. Knowing I wanted to serve others, I entered the nonprofit industry to help families suffering from homelessness. While working with vulnerable populations I discovered my passion for medicine and helping people in their most difficult times. This led me to pursue my nursing degree. I am fortunate to have found my passion in the emergency department collaborating with my medical team to save patient lives.
I met the love of my life, Julie, when we were in middle school. I’m proud that we’re raising our kids just a few miles from where we both grew up. I want nothing more than to make sure that our family has a stable and safe community to grow up in and opportunities to thrive, it’s why I ran for Northglenn City Council. In my time on the Northglenn City Council, I served my neighbors to help them create the kind of community they wanted. I have worked tirelessly to improve the quality of life in Northglenn; initiating legislation to keep our families safe and working hard to keep our leaders accountable. I stood strong on issues of fiscal responsibility and championed efforts to support working class families.
As a State Representative, I am committed to ensuring that every member of my community is able to enjoy healthy lives and to achieve their American dream. In my first term, I sponsored legislation to address the youth vaping epidemic, to strengthen workers' rights, and to protect our children from preventable diseases. However, the work is not done: we need a representative that will fight for our working families, our children’s education and a just economy. I will continue to be that representative and I hope to earn your support.
