I’ve never had a deep desire nor lingering urge to enter politics. I now find myself in the position where I am called to participate. All of us want to protect what is great about our State & Nation. We want to create a more promising future. I am a Patriot and I love America. I’ve been around the world and back, and there is no better country…anywhere. My convictions run deep and my faith is solid. My responsibility is to do what’s right for my family, my friends, my community, and the people of North Dakota. My life experiences, convictions, and faith guide me in this path. I don’t profess to have all the answers, and I look forward to listening and learning from each of you. So, I will answer the call, and use my God-given talents to the best of my ability.
