Fun Fact
Singing is a significant passion of mine outside of work, offering strength and nurturing my creative and persevering spirit to write skits, a pastime I have cherished for years. I believe it underscores the importance of understanding policies and processes. It injects considerable enthusiasm into my work.
Past Experience
My six years of experience as a councilwoman have instilled in me a desire to run for office, focusing on three primary goals: 1. Enhancing our town's infrastructure and revitalizing existing resources. 2. Ensuring access to high-quality water for our residents. 3. Developing innovative housing solutions to stimulate growth. Throughout my tenure, I have maintained a culture of respect among my peers and the community, recognizing the importance of unity in achieving progress. Serving under esteemed mayors and collaborating with dedicated peers over the past six years has enabled us to achieve significant milestones through shared goals, policy development, and strategic partnerships. This experience has equipped me to serve the diverse needs of our community. Through Christ
