In 2019, I entered the political realm because I couldn't stand on the sidelines any longer. The detrimental policies of our Governor and Denver Mayor have trickled down, turning Douglas County into a haven for criminals and homeless encampments.
As a fiscally responsible, pro-life, Christian conservative, I champion the principles enshrined in our Constitution. I firmly believe in life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for all. Limiting government to its proper role fosters stronger economies and empowers citizens.
My straightforward goals include:
- Transparency
- Integrity
- Genuine representation of my community
- Decisions rooted in the Constitution
- Advocacy for our county's interests at the state level
Family is the cornerstone of society and will always be my TOP PRIORITY.
I was born and raised in Nashville and lived there for 23 years until 1999, when I moved to Colorado to marry my incredible husband, Jay.
We have been married for 25 years and I am the proud mother to four beautiful and amazing boys who attend Douglas County public schools. We lost our only daughter to stillbirth in 2007.
We have called Douglas County our home for the last 20 years.
