Welcome!

I am a Democrat running for the Colorado State House of Representatives in District 9, southeast Denver (click here for a map) because I want to create more educational, economic, and health care opportunities for you and all Coloradoans. 

I would appreciate your vote in the Democratic primary election on Tuesday, August 12, 2008.  You can vote early, by mail, or at your local precinct polling location.  

I have 10 years of public policy and political experience (where I worked for Speaker Andrew Romanoff as his Director) and six years of business development experience.  I currently work in the nonprofit sector. 

My goals include: 

* Investing in a clean, alternative energy economy to create high-paying jobs and reduce our dependence on foreign oil;

* A cost-effective, publicly financed, privately administered, single-payer, health care reform plan that emphasizes a doctor-nurse-patient relationship, not an insurance-run system.  We also need to provide more home health care options for our senior citizens so they can age with privacy and dignity in the comfort of their home;

* Creating innovative, world-class schools that emphasize critical thinking skills, different learning styles, two-year, high-tech, vo-tech programs, and a rigorous and well-rounded curriculum, while de-emphasizing the importance of standardized tests.
