I'm running for a seat in the House of Delegates because I know how to get things done—and I know how to build the coalitions it takes to do it. From my activism through the Women’s Democratic Club, to my work at the foundation I co-founded with my daughter to combat food insecurity, to my service on the board of Interfaith Works, I’ve brought creative thinking and a results-driven approach to every challenge I take on.
Over the years, I’ve built strong, trusted relationships across the public, private, and philanthropic sectors—networks that will serve District 16 well. I bring the experience, empathy, and bandwidth to be a full-time advocate for our community.
My work has always been rooted in community — because real change starts with listening, collaborating, and taking action that matters. I don’t just show up, I will deliver. I will build alliances, find solutions, and get things done for the people of D-16.
