This number reflects what the lobbyist has personally given to candidates, parties, and political committees in Nevada — not what their clients have given. The two channels frequently overlap: a paid advocate who also writes a personal check to the legislator they're lobbying is using both kinds of access at once.

2 detector flag(s) on file for this lobbyist
The Nevada Political Establishment auditor cross-references this lobbyist against every Tier A/B/C/D/E1 detector. Each flag below is a research lead, not a published claim — verify against authoritative records before treating as evidence of wrongdoing. Most flags reflect structural patterns the public has a right to see, not necessarily violations.
This lobbyist's name matches a Nevada Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) recipient drawing $47,577/year as of FY2025 (across years: 2019,2020,2021,2022,2023,2024,2025). Citation: NRS 218H lobbyist disclosure of state employment; Olson 1965 captured-coalition framework.
NRS 218H disclosed expenditures: $0. Detected money flow: $4,721 (campaign-account payments received: $0; unambiguous personal political contributions: $4,721). Gap: $4,721. NRS 218H scope is gifts/benefits to legislators, not personal income — the gap is a transparency signal, not a violation per se.
