Alyse is a dedicated America First patriot with a strong commitment to grassroots political activism. Born and raised in the Miami/Fort Lauderdale area, she began modeling at the age of seven with Wilhelmina Models.

That experience inspired her husband’s own run for Congress in Florida’s 26th district, where Alyse played an active role in the campaign. She looks forward to supporting his 2026 race.  Alyse is deeply involved in her local Republican community and has built strong relationships within the Collier County Republican Executive Committee (CCREC). She is passionate about inspiring younger conservatives, standing against career politicians, and promoting bold, principled leadership.  Beyond politics, Alyse is a proud mother of two sons, a successful entrepreneur, and continues her modeling career. In her free time, she enjoys boating, playing tennis, and making the occasional (and humorous) attempt at golf.
