She has held leadership roles with the League of Women Voters, the NAACP, and the Smith County Democratic Party, and won the May 2026 Democratic runoff with about 71% of the vote to challenge incumbent Nathaniel Moran, campaigning on affordability, wages, and voting access for East Texans.

He is seeking re-election in 2026 with an endorsement from President Trump, running on a record of border-security funding fights and support for the oil and gas industry that powers East Texas. He and his wife Kyna have four children.
