biography

Throughout my life, I’ve always felt the need to work harder, longer, and smarter. I’m guessing it’s the message from my observations as a child, and the mantra that it has led me to live by – “What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you.” And, what lies inside of me is the spirit of a servant who has spent years volunteering in the community and helping to give a voice to others.

priorities

education

While some of our challenges to improve education throughout the state seem daunting, I’m encouraged that there’s much consensus emerging on which key issues in education to address. Our state must do more to help students catch up more quickly, especially as we raise expectations for all children.

 

health care

Alabama’s health ranking is 43rd in the nation, up four positions in the last two years, but we still have work to do. No working man or woman should be an accident or diagnosis away from financial ruin. Healthcare is a basic human right.

 

jobs

Middle-skill jobs (those that require education beyond high school but not a four-year degree) make up the largest part of our labor market. Yet, key industries are unable to find sufficiently trained workers to fill these jobs. It’s time to turn our attention to a forgotten middle.

 

economy

Our competitive position in the global economy depends upon the skills of our workforce. To stay ahead, we need broader and more effective investments that enable our workforce to continually increase its skills and adapt to global economic shifts.
