Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

As a second-generation soil scientist, I've learned about the importance of soil from an early age. I attended NC State University where I earned a B.S. in Natural Resources - Soil & Water Systems and a M.S. in Soil Science. For my master’s research I studied changes in soil properties following wetland restoration, and how to adapt wetland restoration techniques to appropriately restore wetland soils. I've continued to pursue my passion for soil and water systems in my professional career. Currently, as a NC licensed soil scientist and professional wetland scientist I work for an environmental mitigation company where I implement and manage stream and wetland restoration projects.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• With the widespread development in Wake County, we need to balance this growth by prioritizing and identifying locations for conservation projects to address stormwater related issues.
• We need to collaborate with municipalities to build larger resilient projects to increase environmental benefits.
• We need to continue educating our citizens about conservation opportunities and how these projects provide benefits for Wake County and our future generations.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I am passionate about public policies related to environmental mitigation. Specifically, policies that allow for restoration of stream buffers which offset impacts from agricultural practices, development of impervious surfaces, and wastewater discharges. These policies are a critical step in the conservation and recovery of Wake County’s streams and rivers which in turn benefit our coastal waters. I look forward to building on the environmental policies of NC by serving on the Wake Soil and Water Conservation District.
