I have served on numerous committees and boards in both followership and leadership roles. I have been active in nursing and educational alliances to implement policy and procedure. I have acted as a change agent to implement standards of practice to promote safety. I care about the future of our children and our communities. I am an avid communicator and fight for change at the state level. I have worked in healthcare and educational systems and am active in the community. The skill I value most is that of being a good listener.
I believe in the idea of America. Citizens have a responsibility to participate in making the best America possible. Points of importance are as follows: 1. To restore, preserve, and strengthen democracy through renewal of American Leadership. 2. Protecting and restoring safety to Americans/communities (Border/Immigration). 3. Healing the soul of America while recovering from the COVID 19 Pandemic and promoting quality healthcare for all Americans. 4. Exemplary education in every zip code 5. Establishment and maintenance of a fair/strong economy. 6. Houselessness and the unhomed. 7. Restoration of trust in the criminal justice system/reformation. 8. Combating climate crisis and pursuing environmental justice 9. Global Unity
