As the wife of an Army veteran, I know what it means to start over and hold a family steady through military life. When my husband, Jason, and I moved to Bell County in 2012, we found a community that felt like home—a place that doesn’t just talk about values but lives them. From that moment, I made a choice: if Bell County was going to embrace my family, I would embrace it right back.
Service has taken many forms in my life. I’ve been a Family Readiness Group leader, a volunteer for Santa’s Workshop, and a steady hand in offices across the county. I have answered emergency calls at the Communications Center, managed records for the Temple Police Department, worked in a school library, and served on the criminal side of the District Clerk’s Office.
What those jobs had in common wasn’t paperwork; it was people. I’ve worked with neighbors who were overwhelmed or tired of feeling like no one was listening. I never saw them as case numbers. I saw them as neighbors who needed help—and I gave it.
More than once, citizens called because their felony records were reported incorrectly. I refused to shrug it off. I did the research, confirmed the errors, and worked until the records were corrected. For me, it wasn’t extra credit; it was simply doing the job right.
That is the heart of my campaign for District Clerk: treating people with dignity, fairness, and respect.- I will modernize the District Clerk's office. Today, you bank on your phone, you order groceries on your phone, and you make payments with your phone. There is no reason why you should need a checkbook and a day off work to conduct your business at the courthouse. Most interactions can and should be handled online, freeing up time for our clerks to handle the complicated in person jobs and dramatically increasing our capacity.
- I will bring efficiency to the District Clerk's office. In 2021, both the County and District Clerks received grants to digitize records. While the County Clerk succeeded, the District Clerk failed. By ignoring state retention guidelines, the District Clerk’s records are now over half of the records in our new, multimillion-dollar archive building. When a file isn’t digital, clerks must walk to the archives and back, wasting your time and tax dollars. This manual process also risks file damage or loss. I will digitize our records and comply with state standards. This ensures your records are secure, reliable, and accessible the moment you need them.
- I will make the District Clerk's Office a check on integrity. Right now, the Clerk's office mostly just processes paperwork without checking the validity of the content. Working with the District Judges, the District Attorney, and the Defense Attorneys, we can start checking for errors and catching them earlier. This makes everybody's lives easier and lets them be more productive.
