In a world where truth can often be overshadowed by power, I believe it is our duty to stand firm against injustice, no matter the cost. I am passionate about fighting for truth and justice because I understand the profound impact that corruption and wrongdoing can have on individuals, communities and our country. It is vital to hold those in positions of authority accountable—those who have sworn an oath to uphold unalienable rights of “We the People” and yet have violated that sacred trust.
I firmly believe that no one is above the law. My mission: to challenge the status quo and ensure that every voice is heard. This isn’t just a profession for me; it’s a calling. It requires courage, integrity, and a commitment to standing up for what is right, even when it means swimming against the current.
