Twenty-six years ago, my husband, Dave, and I chose Poway as the place to raise our family. Like many residents, we were drawn to the excellent schools, safe neighborhoods, and a genuine sense of community. It provided the ideal foundation for our two kids, Hailey and Quinn, to grow into amazing young adults.

My career as a marketing-communications business owner spans more than 30 years. I am also an art educator at local schools; and am the content coordinator for Poway Living magazine.

Serving the community in various capacities over the years–from the GVCA and Poway Unified School District to the Poway Chamber of Commerce and City Council–has been highly rewarding and a great privilege. I’ve found that the key to serving others well is listening, seeking information, and finding solutions. That collective experience makes me uniquely suited to serve District 2 residents from Day One once again.

I am grateful for the opportunity to continue contributing to this special place we call home.
