Hi, welcome!

I first created this website in 2017 when I ran for Chester Heights Borough Council for the very first time. I didn’t win that race, but it sparked a journey of service, education, and community leadership that has shaped the last eight years of my life.

​

In 2018, I became a grant analyst at the University of Delaware and co-founded the Chester Heights Neighbors Alliance to inform and empower residents. I ran again in 2019, narrowing the gap to just 17 votes, and in 2021 I was elected to Borough Council, where I served as a minority member committed to transparency, accountability, and asking difficult but necessary questions.

​

My involvement deepened when I joined the Democratic committee in 2020, ultimately serving as vice chair of what is now the Garnet Valley Democratic Committee (GV Dems). In 2024, following important changes in borough leadership, I was selected to serve as Council President and Chair of the Finance and Administration Committee.

​

In this role, my focus has been strengthening fiscal responsibility, modernizing internal processes, and dramatically improving communication with residents. One of my proudest initiatives was establishing the Community Engagement Committee, which doubled the borough’s email list and launched weekly updates that keep residents informed with clear, timely, and accessible information.

​

In 2025, after completing my Master of Public Administration at the University of Delaware — the same year my youngest daughter graduated from UD, with my eldest daughter having completed her UD degree two years earlier — I stepped into a new professional chapter as Finance Manager for the Office of Clinical Research (OCR) at the University of Pennsylvania. This role has been both challenging and energizing, requiring mastery of new systems and an ability to navigate complex financial environments. It represents exactly the kind of work I value: disciplined, analytical, mission-driven, and rooted in public-sector principles.

​

I am also advancing professionally through ongoing education. I began the rigorous Certified Public Finance Officer (CPFO) program in 2025 and successfully completed the first of the seven required exams. Lifelong learning is central to who I am.  I believe effective public service requires continual growth, adaptability, and a refusal to remain stagnant.

​

Balancing these responsibilities with the busy lives of my four children (ages 13 to 24) keeps life full, challenging, and deeply meaningful.

​

My current term on Borough Council ends in 2025, and I am proud to share that I was re-elected that year with 658 votes — the most ever cast for a council member in Chester Heights history. That level of support is an honor and a responsibility, and it motivates me every day to work toward a more transparent, responsible, and forward-thinking

​

If you are a Chester Heights resident who shares this vision — or if you’re interested in joining our Democratic ticket in 2027— I would love to hear from you. Together, we can continue building a stronger and more inclusive future for our community.

​

Let’s move forward, together.
