Nominator's thoughts on what would make this nominee a valuable member of a future Trump Unity Government
1) Is Competent ... been a practicing hospital-medicine pediatrician for 13 years.
2) Is Honest... I have sometimes gotten into trouble for unreservedly telling the truth in the professional setting. Usually it involves the sentence "I don't know, but I will try to find out."
3) Is Respectful ... I am passionate about upholding the Freedom of Speech and have had long conversations with people who fundamentally disagree with me on issues ranging from abortion to gender-affirming care.
4) Has Integrity ... zero corporate ties. Passionate about merit and despise DEI.
5) Has Courage ... wrote publicly about gender medicine, gave grand rounds at work about Critical Race Theory and why it should be eliminated from the work place. Spoke up at School Board meetings publicly about why CRT should not be in schools. Canvassed for anti CRT/ anti-queer theory candidates for school board in the neighborhood.
6) Has a Proven Record... been serving as a hospital-based pediatrician for 13 years. Always been able to renew my credentials at my work.
