Before her current marriage, Heather worked three jobs, as a single mother, in order to provide a quality life for her young daughter. Heather's determination for a better life led her down a path of service to our community and has fought to provide solutions to the issues facing our community. Heather has been a staunch advocate for members of the military and their families and, as the next Delegate, will continue fighting to provide resources and support. She has personally worked through many of the barriers military families face each day and will be a strong voice in Richmond for our veterans. For the past several years, Heather has worked on a grassroots level speaking with members of our community about their concerns and working with local officials to offer results-oriented solutions. As a Senior Aide to the Prince William County Board of Supervisors, Heather has a unique understanding of the transportation, education, and financial needs of our region. As the next Delegate, Heather will stand up for our community. She will be the fresh voice that we need. Together, we can move the 2nd District forward.
- I will be a voice for the entire district, not just to those who vote for me.
- I want to bring back the art of vigorous debate and may the best ideas win.
- I will work with anyone on smart, positive solutions and I will never compromise my core beliefs.
"You came here from there because you didn't like there, and now you want to change here to be like there. We are not racist, phobic or anti whatever-you-are, we simply like here the way it is and most of actually came here because it is not like there, wherever there was. You are welcome here, but please stop trying to make here like there. If you want here to be like there you should not have left there to come here, and you are invited to leave here and go back there at your earliest convenience."
