| Collapse all
- Like so many others my husband and I saw the potential in this amazing county and chose to raise our family here. For this reason, I am fully vested and passionate about the direction and future success of Charles County. I see the potential and want to make sure the sense of community that this county was built on never dissipates.
- A vote for me is a vote for Charles County and the voices of those who reside is Charles County. As Delegate I will work for the residents and not for my own self interests. I will go into the communities to seek the needs of those in this county and will work diligently to create solutions. I will work across the aisle as my focus will be on working together regardless of varying political stances. The people of Charles County will always come first.
- Charles County is a hidden gem, and its full potential has not been realized. Its rich history is a great example of its potential for success in the future. I want to help realize that potential by making sure that families, young adults veterans and our elderly populations can thrive is a county that offers amenities and an economy for business owners to thrive.
I am passionate about supporting small businesses and providing them with resources and infrastructure. While several areas of the county are built up, other areas have growing populations and lack necessary amenities. There are a number of struggling businesses. A focus on agrotourism could change that thus making Charles County a place that people drive to vs a county that people drive through.
