I served at the Army General Counsel’s office at the Pentagon just weeks after the September 11 terrorist attacks. I went on to serve as senior Republican Healthcare Advisor in both the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives, and lastly, I was one of the youngest Partners ever at K&L Gates, a global law firm. I know the story of struggles and being from a place where the government takes away your rights, and that's why I'm running, to make sure America never becomes that!
 In my career, I've been grateful to give back to the country that has given me and my family so much. Because of my personal connection to diabetes, I am especially proud of the work I did to successfully lobby Congress to get funding for Diabetes Prevention Programs in all 50 states with 12 programs right here in Pinellas County. 
If I am so fortunate to serve you in Congress, you can rely on me to be Pro-Term Limits, Pro-Finishing the Wall to protect our homeland, Pro-Life, Pro-Second Amendment, Pro-Election Integrity and Pro-Opening up all our pipelines to give Americans relief at the pump.
 Governor Ron DeSantis needs a reliable partner into help him fight the culture wars on be Congress half of our children and grandchildren. If I'm elected, I hope to serve you in that capacity in Congress.
