Experience, Leadership, and Vision Serving the community requires a combination of practical experience, a proven track record of civic leadership, and a clear vision for the future. Here is why I am qualified to serve: 1. Proven Civic Leadership & Governance Local Government Experience: As the Land Bank Commissioner for the City of Blue Springs. Board Governance: My service on the board of the American Red Cross, alongside past board experience with organizations like Global Montessori and Trinity CDC, has provided me with deep expertise in fiscal oversight, strategic planning, and collaborative governance. 2. A Strategic & Community-First Approach 3. Education and Dedication Academic Foundation: Holding a Master of Education (M.Ed.) has equipped me with strong analytical, communication, and structural problem-solving skills. My time spent in law school further grounded my understanding of policy, statutory frameworks, and the vital importance of the separation of powers.
Key Priorities for the Coming Year If given the opportunity to serve, my focus for the next year will be squarely on delivering practical, community-first solutions that enhance transparency, improve infrastructure, and protect the financial interests of our residents.

Here are the four key priorities that will guide my work over the next twelve months: Strengthening Fiscal Oversight & Community Returns Expanding Regional Transit & Micro-Transit Accessibility Modernizing Housing Policy & Addressing Affordability Ensuring Clear Separation of Powers & Accountability Ensuring our property taxes are correct and fair at all times.
