Qualifications for this office
I have been a practicing trial attorney, both plaintiff and defense, for 32 years. I have experience in many areas of law, including civil litigation, criminal law, governmental and constitutional law and election law. I have appeared in court in most of Nevada's counties, as well as Nevada Superior Court and 9th Circuit. I also have administrative experience, both in business and charitable organizations.
-
Describe your political philosophy. Are you liberal or conservative, socially and/or fiscally?
I believe in traditional American values as embodied in the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the Declaration of Independence. I believe that we need to reassert individual and states' rights against ever-expanding federal power.
-
Have you ever taken a stand on or voted on public records or open meetings matters?
No, but I believe in as much openness in government as possible, and I support freedom of information laws.
-
Describe your commitment to openness in government.
See above.
-
Would you sign a transparency pledge?
Probably - but I would want to see what I'm signing first. (I am an attorney, you know!)
