Campaign Statement I am running because I believe Idahoans deserve a choice and a dedicated voice that truly listens. As a former small business owner, a mother, and a caregiver, I understand both the responsibilities and the rewards of building a life in this state. My goal is to represent our community with the same dedication and integrity I’ve applied to every chapter of my life, ensuring that Idaho remains a place where future generations can thrive.

Office Sought State Senate Seat District 20
I would like to improve K-12 education in Idaho. According to the Education Data Initiative, Idaho ranks at the bottom of education spending among the states.

Currently in Idaho, we have lost 43% of our Ob/Gyn doctors due the criminalization of women's health care. As a result, many rural areas are faced with long commutes to visit a doctor. I would like to give voters a ballot choice in this matter, and I will work to preserve Medicaid availability.

I want to preserve Idaho's public lands. While this is mostly a federal issue, I believe Idaho State government can have a role in influencing national policy to preserve our public lands for future generations.
As a small business owner for over 30 years in Idaho until 2005, I managed my business and a team. As a stylist and salon owner, I spent decades listening to the stories and concerns of my clients.

District 20 needs representatives that listen to their concerns. Have you ever met a politician that listens as well as a hair stylist? I intend to be that listener.

I volunteered with Bogus Basin Ski Patrol for 14 years. I learned emergency medical care. This experience prepared me to be an medical advocate. I later advocated for family members and learned a lot about Medicare and Medicaid.

I want to use my skills as an advocate to represent the people of District 20.
Polarization. The biggest and most exciting challenge is to reduce polarization and help District 20 work together.
Double check your voter registration, particularly if you have moved. And vote. It's not just a mid-term election, it's our election of 2026. My father was a great believer in voting. He stuck all his 'I Voted' stickers on his wallet. He had a collection of them, going back a decade. He recognized that his vote was his chance to steer government and he took every opportunity to do just that.
