• WHY I'M RUNNING: 
 I am running for Ward 2 to bring a new perspective and diversity to City Council. Albany is my home and I want to build a community that reflects all of our values and supports all of our dreams. As a mother to two daughters (9 and 13) and a small business owner, I know how to adapt and get things done. I’m ready to work with the community to make Albany even better.
 I will advocate for all citizens; those who have not had representation in the past, lifelong residents, and the next generation. I want to ensure Albany’s livability by supporting accessible/affordable housing, inclusion and equity in our schools, and transparency and accountability in local government. Albany is a city of both rich history and promise for the future. We need a City Council that represents our whole community so we can preserve Albany as a livable and vibrant multi-generational community.
