Personal Biography A mom of three, small business owner, and a mortgage strategist who helps families make smart financial decisions. She and her family live in Ward 3, where they’ve built strong roots and are committed to the community's long-term future.
Education B.S. Science- Hospitality Management
1. Restoring Trust and Combatting Misinformation: A small but vocal group has used fear and misinformation to influence local decisions, eroding trust. I believe in honest, transparent communication rooted in facts. Rebuilding trust starts with listening and leading with integrity.

2.Resident-Driven Investments: From street maintenance to green space and public safety, I support responsible budgeting that reflects community priorities and long-term planning.

3. Municipal Complex: A decision should be made before the election. I support the updated design shaped by four years of public input and do not support a citywide vote.
I’m a mortgage strategist, small business owner, and mom of three. Every day, I help families make informed, strategic financial decisions during some of the most meaningful transitions in their lives. I bring strong financial literacy, creative problem-solving, and a calm, solutions-oriented mindset. My background in service and hospitality taught me how to listen first, follow through, and act with integrity. I’ve built my business and community relationships on trust and transparency. These are the same values I’ll bring to city council—along with a deep commitment to showing up, doing the work, and putting people first.
City council shapes the day-to-day experience of living in Prairie Village. From infrastructure and parks to public safety and how we invest in the future, council decisions directly impact residents. It’s also where people should feel heard and represented. This office is about more than policy—it’s about people. Local government should be accessible, transparent, and responsive. Prairie Village deserves thoughtful, collaborative leadership that reflects the values of our community and builds trust through action.
