“I am a woman of integrity. I was raised to believe having strong moral principles provides transparency of word and deed.

I am a passionate listener. It is through compassionate listening that I find community with others that allows me to build bridges and relationships. I look forward to building relationships with all people in Jefferson City.

I believe in equality for all and I am a champion of human rights. I believe it is my responsibility to open doors that are closed to others.”
