Good public schools are the very foundation of our community, the Commonwealth and this country, the building block on which we all stand.
When I was appointed to serve as the school board member in district one, I discovered I was the first Black female to serve in this role. Now I am seeking election to continue this work. I need your vote.

Compassion is about feeling and understanding the needs of others but then acting to do something about it. As a mother of two adult children that graduated and excelled through Fayette County public schools, I understand the concerns of families. Like other Moms, I navigated carpool, school plays, snacks, athletics, fund raising, band, school trips, lost homework, and meltdowns.
I also worked as an employee of FCPS for five and a half years. I understand the challenges, complexities, and rewards of public schools.
Our teachers, staff, bus drivers, maintenance staff, administrators need our support. Like a symphony they have to play their parts in unison to make each day meaningful for our students.

I will stay community-focused because together we accomplish more.

Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and fund our mission.
