After graduating, summa cum laude, from BYU with degrees in English and Political Science, I worked for a U.S. Senator in Washington, D.C., for a couple of years. I then enrolled at UCLA, where I earned an M.A. in Political Science and a Ph.D. in Organizational Behavior and Human Resources.
I've taught as adjunct faculty, served on PTA boards and School Community Councils for many years, and volunteered for a nonprofit serving refugees. I've helped with fundraisers for charities and also with local political campaigns. Since almost the inception of the moderate United Utah Party, I've served as the party's Davis County Vice-Chair.- I will engage with all constituencies in seeking common ground and finding common-sense solutions.
- I will work to counteract the outsized influence of entrenched politicians and of special-interest political contributors in Utah.
- I will strengthen the underrepresented voices of moderates and women in the Utah legislature.
- political reform (e.g., fair redistricting, campaign finance reform, an exploration of voting methods that promote sincere rather than strategic voting)
- responsible environmental stewardship, with a particular focus on conserving water and improving our air quality
- access to mental health care, especially for our youth
- affordable housing
