She hopes to make the legal system more accessible by simplifying legal language

She states on her website, "to achieve this vision of accessible laws, I plan to reach out to the Georgia bar association and Georgia law colleges to collaborate on creating a simplified version of our laws".

She states on her website, "I firmly believe that citizens should not be compelled to fund art projects or other endeavors through taxes. Instead, we can foster creativity and cultural growth by encouraging private crowdfunding initiatives for these ventures. By doing so, we preserve individual agency and prevent unnecessary spending that burdens taxpayers."
