As a mom, I saw firsthand how much our children lost during the pandemic—not just academically, but emotionally and socially. My own kids missed valuable time in school, and I know many families are still trying to help their children catch up.

I’m committed to advocating for mental health awareness, stronger support systems, and creating a community where kids can just be kids again—without fear, stress, or uncertainty about what’s next.

Many residents have told me they feel left in the dark when it comes to local decisions. I believe the people of Perry deserve honest, clear communication from their leaders.

I’m committed to being open about how decisions are made, and why—and to making sure anyone who wants to be part of the conversation has a chance to be heard.

I don’t believe in top-down decision-making. I believe in listening—to parents, small business owners, neighbors, and everyone in between. Perry works best when we work together. That means showing up, asking questions, and making space for different perspectives so we can solve problems as a united community—not just an elite few deciding for the rest of us.

I’ve seen what happens when towns resist growth—and what happens when they grow too fast without the infrastructure to support it. Perry is at a turning point, and we need thoughtful planning that preserves our small-town values while preparing for the future.

I’m committed to making sure our roads, schools, utilities, and services can meet the needs of our families now and in the years to come.
