Fun Fact
Beyond my dedication as a public servant, I am a mother and wife who finds joy in my daughter, my two energetic fur babies, family, and friends. I love getting lost in a good book, exploring the world of anime, and my enthusiastic fandom of Star Wars (Darth Vader is my favorite).
Past Experience
Serving on the Henry County Board of Elections and Voter Registration (HCBOEVR) from July 2021 for four years, including one year as Chair, I played a vital role in overseeing budgets and ensuring smooth county elections through collaboration with colleagues, the Director of Elections, and staff. My focus was on improving the voting experience for Henry County residents through advocating for expanded early voting, enhancing voter and poll worker education, pushing for a new elections building, and increasing legislative advocacy and communication related to elections.
I also bring a proven track record of identifying and solving complex problems, honed through my work as a Clinical Informatics Registered Nurse and recent service on the Henry County Board of Elections and Voter Registration. In my nursing role, I directly addressed a critical disconnect in patient care between the Emergency Room and inpatient settings, collaborating with clinicians to implement evidence-based practices that significantly improved patient outcomes. This ability to analyze challenges and drive effective solutions will be invaluable on the McDonough (GA) City Council.

Attracting and retaining businesses
