I am a resident of Cobb County and the proud parent of three amazing boys, ages 23,19, and 12. As an undergraduate student at Talladega College, majoring in Organizational Development I learned how to collaborate on, research and create efficient solutions to problems. I learned the importance of listening and the value of compassion. With 10 years of experience in the insurance industry, I have protected and served many families. I have observed small business owners and families struggle to maintain economic and financial security in this shifting ever changing economy. These daily encounters have empowered me to help and facilitate change and in which we can thrive together. I am a strong woman of faith and driven by principles, faith and strong beliefs in the American dream. Having raised my children as a single mom, I understand the struggles of hard-working families. I look forward to advocating on their behalf and for our communities in the Georgia House of Representative. I am a dedicated public servant who strives for excellence in everything I sets out to accomplish. I am well-qualified and ready to serve as our next State Representative!
  • Education A robust and well-funded public education system is vital to the success of our youth.
  • Public Safety I pledge to always support and defend Ethical and Honest Law Enforcement Officers.
  • Economic Development Small businesses are the engine that drives job creation, and we must reduce the red tape that makes it harder for our small and medium-size businesses to be successful.
