Colorado Deserves Strength. Colorado Deserves Proven Leadership.

I’m not running for the U.S. Senate to be another voice in the noise—I’m running to bring real-world experience, tested leadership, and bold solutions to the people of Colorado.

My journey started in healthcare, earning my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from University of Colorado Colorado Springs. That education gave me a front-row seat to the challenges families face—rising costs, broken systems, and the need for compassionate, efficient care.

But I didn’t stop there.

I expanded into real estate and transactions, understanding housing, development, and the pressures facing Colorado families trying to build a future. Then I pursued my MBA at University of Colorado Colorado Springs, where I also completed specialized studies in Artificial Intelligence and Cybersecurity—preparing for the future, not the past.

And then—we built.

My husband John and I founded companies focused on construction, infrastructure, and innovation—developing smarter, more efficient building systems and championing an all-of-the-above energy approach: coal, solar, nuclear, and beyond. Because Colorado needs reliability, not ideology.

We’ve prioritized:

• Smarter infrastructure

• Water protection and recycling

• Affordable, efficient building materials

• Long-term sustainability that actually works

  
  

Our work earned recognition through the State of Colorado’s Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade Advanced Industry Investment Tax Credit (AITC)—a testament to the strength and forward-thinking nature of what we’re building.

But here’s what makes this different:

I’m not doing this alone.

My husband, John Calderon, is a man of discipline, grit, and deep Colorado roots. A United States Marine Corps veteran, he earned dual Master’s degrees in Agriculture and Business Agriculture from University of California Irvine while serving his country. He spent 30 years in the Roaring Fork Valley after 8 years in the Marine Corp and he brings 30+ years of experience in:

• Construction and large-scale building

• Ranching and agricultural operations

• Managing cattle and feed programs

• Working directly with the State of Colorado

  
  

He is a third-generation horse trainer and has spent years working cattle in Colorado’s high

country. He’s seen firsthand the pressure our ranchers and farmers face—from water rights battles to land use restrictions—and he is committed to protecting the backbone of our state.

Together, we are a partnership built on experience, resilience, and purpose.

We understand Colorado—not from a desk in Washington—but from:

• Job sites

• Hospitals

• Ranch land

• Small businesses

• Real families trying to make it

We are ready to fight for:

• Lower costs for families

• Stronger support for agriculture and energy

• Smarter use of our natural resources

• Policies that actually strengthen—not suffocate—our economy

  
  

Colorado doesn’t need another politician.

Colorado needs leadership that is: Capable. Educated. Passionate. Honest. Courageous. Fearless. Grounded in strong character. America First. Colorado First. Born Here.

And yes— someone who is supported by a partner who shares the same mission, the same values, and the same unwavering commitment to this state.

That’s what we bring.

And that’s why I’m asking for your vote to serve as the next United States Senator for Colorado—to represent ALL of Colorado, the way it deserves to be represented.

Stop the Waste. Restore Trust.
