Public Accountability

"I'm not here to play party politics or court elite donors. I'm here to challenge the systems that sustain political division.

Tennessee is where I was raised, became an engineer, started my small business, and invested in my community.

I'm want to leave it better than I found it. Let's build better government, by design."

"We've known about climate change since before I was born. All my life I've watched us allow it to worsen.

And now a handful of men are trying to capitalize on it. We can't put up with it anymore.

I'm ready for a world where we care for all people and plan for generations, and that's why Climate Action is my number one priority."
