My Priorities

A Representative for All

Every person in House District 32 deserves a voice, regardless of where they live, their background, or their political beliefs. I believe leadership starts with listening, showing up, and working together to find solutions.

As a Mayor Pro Tem and City Councilor, community organizer, and founder of Voices for Change, I have seen firsthand the challenges families face and the opportunities that exist when communities are given the resources they need to thrive.

I am running to bring practical, people-centered leadership to Santa Fe and ensure rural New Mexico is not forgotten.

Strengthening Rural Communities

Rural communities deserve more than promises, they deserve investment, resources, and leaders who show up.

I will work to ensure communities like ours have the infrastructure, services, and support needed to grow and succeed.

My priorities include:

  • Investing in roads, water systems, and critical infrastructure

  • Expanding access to reliable broadband and essential services

  • Supporting local governments with the resources they need

  • Making sure rural communities have a strong voice in state decisions

Healthcare and Behavioral Health for Every Community

Where you live should not determine the quality of care you receive.

Through my work in community advocacy, I have seen how families are impacted when healthcare and behavioral health resources are difficult to access. We must build a system that supports people before they reach a crisis.

My priorities include:

  • Expanding access to healthcare providers in rural communities

  • Strengthening behavioral health and addiction recovery services

  • Supporting programs that address mental health and community wellness

  • Investing in the workforce needed to serve rural New Mexicans

Creating Opportunities for Working Families

Families should not have to leave their communities to find opportunity.

I believe economic development means investing in the people, businesses, and industries that make southern New Mexico strong.

My priorities include:

  • Supporting small businesses and local entrepreneurs

  • Expanding workforce development and career opportunities

  • Supporting agriculture and rural industries

  • Creating pathways for young people to build successful futures close to home

Investing in Education and the Next Generation

Our children and young people are not just our future, they are our present.

Through Voices for Change, I have worked to empower young people to become leaders and active participants in their communities. Every student deserves the opportunity to succeed.

My priorities include:

  • Supporting educators, students, and public schools

  • Expanding career and technical education opportunities

  • Investing in youth leadership and civic engagement

  • Creating pathways to higher education and meaningful careers

Leadership That Listens and Represents Everyone

Public service is about serving the people who elected you and those who did not.

As a public servant, I believe a representative’s responsibility is to listen, build relationships, and bring people together to solve problems.

My commitment:

  • Be accessible and accountable to the community

  • Listen to every voice with respect

  • Work across differences to deliver results

  • Be a Representative for All

Together, We Can Move Rural New Mexico Forward

Our communities are built by hardworking families, dedicated educators, small businesses, farmers, workers, and neighbors who care deeply about where we live.

I believe rural New Mexico has incredible potential. With the right leadership, investment, and commitment, we can create stronger communities and more opportunities for generations to come.
