Safety in our schools and communities is my top priority. If our schools and neighborhoods aren’t safe places for children to learn and grow, the entire community suffers. My second priority is improving our roads and infrastructure. Parks and recreation are also a top priority. I want to add pickleball courts, expand trails and maintain and upgrade our parks.

I've been proud to call O'Fallon home for over 30 years as both a resident and a business owner. I've had the privilege of serving on more than 30 boards and commissions in our community. I was honored to be elected by the people as the director of the ambulance district and to the City Council from Ward 4. My core values are rooted in God, family and community.

1) Advocate for smart growth in O'Fallon by supporting business development and responsible residential expansion. 2) Protect community integrity by opposing rezoning that prioritizes high-density apartments over balanced residential and commercial planning. 3) Implement effective solutions to alleviate traffic congestion and improve infrastructure in high-traffic areas.

I hold a master’s degree in biochemistry and spent 14 years conducting brain research at Washington University School of Medicine. I'm also a small business owner and teach science as a substitute in the Fort Zumwalt School District. I will bring my expertise as a scientist, small business owner and educator to drive smart, sustainable growth in our beloved city.
