Serving as Vice Chair of the Oak Hill Planning Commission has given me a strong understanding of our city's ordinances, planning process, and the careful decision-making required to preserve Oak Hill's unique character. Over the past two years, I've worked to evaluate development proposals, interpret city code, and balance the long-term interests of residents with responsible growth.

Professionally, I have more than twelve years of experience as an entrepreneur working with nonprofit and for-profit organizations to develop sustainable growth strategies and improve efficiency, strengthening my ability support City priorities.

I will serve as a thoughtful and informed Commissioner.
Community voice is one of Oak Hill's greatest strengths. Our residents care deeply about protecting the character of our city, and I believe good government begins with listening.

As a Planning Commissioner, I've already been working with the City Manager and City Administration to improve communication between the City and residents. If elected Commissioner, I will continue supporting clear, transparent communication and create additional opportunities for residents to engage with their elected officials.

I also believe accessibility matters. Residents should always feel comfortable reaching out with questions, concerns, or ideas, and I will remain available through my website, email, and in-person conversations.
