From the firehouse to the halls of Congress, I’m ready to fight for Florida’s future. As a lifelong Floridian, firefighter, and paramedic, I know what it means to serve. It’s time for A New Generation of Leadership in Florida’s 21st Congressional District. Together, we can build a better future.

BREAKING: Brian Mast just dropped the provision in his bill that would’ve let Marco Rubio revoke your passport. That’s a win for free speech, but the fact it was ever in there shows how far some politicians will go to silence dissent. I’ll fight to protect your voice.

Bad form with your pull-ups and bad form with your job as a whole. The people who talk the most are often the weakest links.

A woman in Iowa just won an election in Iowa in a R+11 district by 10 points. Don’t tell me we can’t flip this R+7 district here in FL 21.

I can’t just sit by and do nothing when I know families in my community are struggling. The least I can do is make sure I help as many families as I can have a great Thanksgiving dinner here in Ft Pierce, FL Please check the comments on how you can help contribute this holiday season.

For every one meal a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides 9. Food banks cannot bridge the gap if SNAP benefits aren’t available.

With all the talk of Graham Platner’s tattoo, I just wanted to clarify mine so there is no misunderstanding.

Happy National First Responder Day! Today we honor the firefighters, EMTs, paramedics, police, and dispatchers who run toward danger when others run away. As a firefighter & paramedic, I know the sacrifice it takes, and in Congress, I’ll always fight for those who serve.

Eliminating property taxes in Florida might sound great, until you realize it guts funding for schools, first responders, and infrastructure. That’s not relief, that’s risk. Florida families deserve real tax reform, not political gimmicks.

My prayers are with the people of Jamaica as Hurricane Melissa, now a Category 4 storm, moves closer to the island. As someone from the Treasure Coast, I know the fear hurricanes bring. Let’s stand with our Caribbean neighbors and be ready to help them recover.

What’s happening in the Congo is genocide, and the world’s silence is complicity. Children are being forced into mines. Families are being destroyed. All for the minerals that power our phones and cars. We must demand accountability, transparency, and justice.

Families in FL-21 are facing a crisis. Because of the government shutdown, SNAP benefits may not be available in November, leaving people without food assistance. I grew up relying on SNAP. I know what hunger feels like and I’ll fight in Congress to make sure no family ever goes through this again.
