Office Sought
Senator, District 19
My priorities will include greater protection of open spaces, our wildlife and raptor populations; elimination of property taxes for long-term residents of Idaho; and using my expertise to address health care costs.
40 years of executive-level finance and operations in healthcare; being a volunteer in local politics for the last 8 years; and, yes, being a mother and (now) a grandmother. Am entering my 14th year as an Idaho resident and have been engaged in local politics for the last eight years.
As with any new job, quickly learning how I can best serve the citizens and my fellow legislators by bringing my unique skill sets to the role.
District 19 has been an area of significant population growth, yet the three representatives for our district continue to provide voice to only a segment of the population. I hope to bring new ideas and collaborate to benefit the residents of District 19.
