Listen. Learn. Lead.
As your senator, I describe my job in three words: listen, learn, lead. True representative government begins with listening – listening to YOUR experiences, observations, and ideas about how government is and isn’t working for you. Listening is a catalyst to learning – to exploring, creating and identifying effective, efficient and excellent solutions. And then it is time to lead – to advocate and activate those solutions.
That’s my job as your Senator, and you can count on me to listen, learn and lead for you in the Texas Senate.
