I’m a fifth-generation native of eastern North Carolina. My experiences growing up in this great region inform every decision I make and every vote I cast.
I've seen firsthand the challenges our communities face, but I've also witnessed the incredible strength and resilience that define us. It's this deep understanding that I bring to Washington every day.
Throughout my career - as a minister, an educator, a mayor, a state senator, and now your Congressman - I've been guided by the values I learned right here.
