For over a year, I’ve been talking about a real plan for Oklahoma’s businesses and rural communities. While others are just starting to talk about it, I’ve been traveling the state, meeting with business owners, educators, workforce leaders, and families to develop solutions that can create real results.
I’m not running to make promises. I’m running to make things happen.
Our rural communities are built on strong families, local businesses, and a culture that keeps generations connected. But too many young Oklahomans feel they have to leave home to find opportunity.
I believe we can change that.
As your next Labor Commissioner, I will focus on strengthening workforce pathways, supporting entrepreneurship, connecting young people to trades and apprenticeships, and helping communities create opportunities that keep talent, jobs, and families close to home.
I’ve lived in a small town. I understand the pride, values, and sense of community that make rural Oklahoma special.
Stronger businesses. More jobs. Stronger families. Stronger Oklahoma.
I have a plan. And I’m ready to get to work.
