PROVEN LEADER.
AMERICA FIRST CONSERVATIVE.
A VOICE TEXANS CAN TRUST.

Shelly Lesikar deZevallos

A born-and-raised Texan, a proud Longhorn and Aggie, and a proven conservative leader who has spent her career fighting for values that make Texas strong — free enterprise, individual liberty, and American innovation.

A pilot and aviation industry leader with over 5,000 hours of flight time, Shelly has worked for a major aircraft manufacture and for the family business.  From selling and demonstrating aircraft to aviation infrastructure. Her expertise and track record of success earned her appointments from both President Trump — who named her to the U.S. Department of Transportation Safety Oversight and Certification Advisory Committee to advise his administration on aviation safety and certification — and Governor Greg Abbott, who appointed her to the Small Business Freedom Council (Texas DOGE) and the Aerospace and Aviation Advisory Committee. She also serves on the board of the National Business Aviation Association.

Shelly earned her Bachelor of Arts from the University of Texas, her EMBA from Texas A&M University, and her Doctorate in Aviation and Space Science. She holds a commercial pilot certificate with Single and Multi-Engine Land and glider ratings.

Shelly is ready to put her expertise to work in Congress. Texas families need an America First conservative who knows how to get things done.
