INVESTING IN EASTERN NC'S FUTURE
Eastern North Carolina is the land of opportunity. It’s critical we continue to invest in our future with quality education, workforce development, and tax cuts for hardworking families & businesses.

NEW AIRPORT PROJECT MANAGER AT GTP
It was a pleasure to welcome Gage King to our NCGA office earlier this month. Mr. King, a new resident of Kinston, recently began serving as Airport Project Manager at the North Carolina Global TransPark. The GTP is an economic engine driving opportunities in Eastern NC, & we’re grateful to have dedicated professionals like Gage working with us to take this site to the next level.
ADVOCATING FOR FARMERS
Farmers & agricultural workers are the backbone of our community — providing food, creating jobs, and driving our local economy. As your State Representative, I will continue to advocate for better infrastructure that improves the transportation of goods, and champion policies that make NC the best state for agribusiness. Together, we’ll continue to support the agricultural heritage that makes Eastern North Carolina strong.
CONNECTING WITH GREENE LAMP COMMUNITY ACTION AGENCY
We enjoyed visiting with our friends from Greene Lamp Community Action Agency. This organization, based in Kinston, provides services that stabilize households — connecting families to employment opportunities, providing early childhood education, helping individuals with special needs, and improving the living conditions of low-income residents. We’re very blessed to have such an impactful non-profit serving our communities.
SUPPORTING RURAL COMMUNITIES
I’m running for re-election to the NC House to continue strengthening our rural communities. We have a track record of success expanding broadband access, strengthening flood resilience, and supporting local businesses — and with your support, I’ll continue to work tirelessly to improve the quality of life for all residents of Eastern North Carolina. Together, we’ll make our region the best place to live, work, and raise a family.
