Many people in our state have had a hightened sense of urgency in their civic involvement ever since the previous election, and I have shared that same sentiment. I believe that this is a time in history where we must act boldly when we know the intentions of our heart, which is why I'm announcing my campaign for New Hampshire State Representative in 2026. Campaign announcements for State Rep. races in New Hampshire aren't typically made this early, but these are not typical times. While national politics have created an urgeny to act, it is the politics and government of New Hampshire that I care most about and what I've been considering for the past year.

The time between Election Day 2024 and now has also been filled with a lot of self-reflection, mostly related to the personal and financial constraints of campaigning and serving as a state legislator. These challenges aren't much of a secret and I believe one of the things that our legislature continues to lack is representatives who can see the entire landscape of living in New Hampshire. Not nearly enough legislators are simultaneously of working age, raising the next generation of Granite Staters, and also dealing with very real concerns for their older family members, who are trying to find a way to live in the state where they've laid down their roots. It's affecting what the legislature prioritizes, which has made it economically challenging to live here.

While I hope to return to the seat to which I was first elected in 2022, my greatest wish is to see our state move past a suffocating reliance on property taxes, to one that makes it possible for families to stay. Leaving a multi-generational legacy is a dream I have for my family and for anyone in New Hampshire who wishes the same for theirs. The party in power has had many unrestricted chances to lead New Hampshire to this place, and they have failed. It's time for change.
