Why I'm Running
Uphold the Texas Constitution
Uphold the Texas Constitution
Uphold the Texas Constitution
Our Texas and U.S. Constitutions are under threat from those who wish to bend them for their own agendas. I refuse to let that happen. Every decision from the 13th Court needs to be just, fair, and uphold the rule of law.
Swift Justice, the Texan Way

Uphold the Texas Constitution
Many of our courts have been bogged down with bureaucracy and delays. I am committed to reviewing lower courts' decisions swiftly and moving the appeals process forward as efficiently and effectively as possible.

Liberal or conservative, it doesn't matter. I will base decisions on the law and nothing else. I want to ensure fairness in every civil and criminal appeal, free from any personal or political agenda.

With rising mistrust in the judicial system, I pledge to be transparent and dedicated to the rule of law. The 13th Court of Appeals must be a place where Texans know the law and its intent is respected and protected.
