I bring a business-minded approach shaped by my career as a Marketing professional in manufacturing, hospitality & tourism, and now in the tech industry. I know the City must be run with a data based approch, accountability and efficiency. For nearly eight years, I have supported District 6 residents through hands-on constituent services, giving me a deep understanding of our community’s needs and how to get things done at City Hall. I value bipartisan engagement and believe balanced leadership is essential to the success of our City. With strong relationships in the General Assembly and Congress, I am ready to be the bridge between Charlotte, Raleigh, and Washington to deliver real results for our city.
1. Crime & Public Safety
Nothing matters more to a thriving community than safety. Yet too many families in Charlotte feel unsafe in their own neighborhoods. From repeat juvenile offenders cycling in and out of the system, to our officer shortage we are falling short.
2. Infrastructure & Connectivity
District 6 residents consistently tell me the same thing: we are overtaxed and underserved when it comes to infrastructure. While our community contributes heavily to the city’s tax base, our neighborhoods often wait years for the most basic improvements. That must change.
3. Transparency -Charlotte City Council has become far too comfortable with backroom deals and one-party rule. Transparency has been reduced to a buzzword, not a practice.
Crime: I’ll partner with CMPD, the DA, and the General Assembly to remove repeat offenders, support victims, and invest in prevention by keeping youth in classrooms and off the streets. Infrastructure: As part of my 100-day plan, I’ll launch a District 6 Infrastructure Pipeline to collect and track neighborhood needs, ensuring priorities don’t get stuck in the backlog but receive attention and funding. Transparency: I’ll restore trust by being a leader who expects our leadership to limit closed sessions, release public records within 48-72 hours, and speak up when politics take priority over people.
My campaign is built on being the ear that listens and the voice that advocates for District 6. I’m ready to work toward smarter growth, safer communities, and a transparent government that truly listens. I will work closely with community and neighborhood leaders, turning their concerns into clear action plans with ongoing tracking and follow-up.
Over the past eight years in constituent services, I’ve gained a firsthand understanding of District 6 and some of Charlotte’s biggest challenges. I’m ready to hit the ground running, I want to make an immediate, positive impact for both the city and District 6. One of the key reasons to support me is the risk we face from one-party rule. There is not one Republican woman on City Council. I am running for this seat to offer diversity of thought because accountability, transparency, and innovation die with one party rule. I want to work toward a stronger District and city for everyone.
