What's at Stake
This Election Decides District 1's Future
The choice on November 3 is simple: more of the same, or a hopeful new direction that puts families first.
Cost of Living
Families are squeezed by rising prices. We need leaders who understand the math at the kitchen table — not just the one in Washington.
Education
Parents deserve real choices and schools that prepare kids for the future. The status quo is failing too many of our children.
Public Safety
Safe communities are the foundation of opportunity. We can back the badge and back our neighborhoods at the same time.
Opportunity
Small businesses and working families are the engine of District 1. They deserve a leader who fights for them, not against them.

As a dedicated mom of four, homeschooler, and small business owner, she truly understands the everyday struggles families face with rising costs, safety concerns, and a government that often feels out of touch. Christian is running to put hardworking parents, workers, and communities first with honest, common-sense leadership. She’s fresh, principled, and ready to fight for real change.
