Expand all | Collapse all

After a 17 year career in education, I followed in my parents' footsteps and became a small business owner/entrepreneur. I am a wife and mother of three beautiful and talented children.

  • Education -Our schools are the heart of the communities we live in. Our educators work tirelessly to teach our children and prepare them to become productive citizens. I will honor the work they do and pay close attention to legislation that will affect the efficacy of our schools.
  • Protecting the Tennessee Dream --Middle Tennessee is experiencing tremendous growth. It is important that we protect the culture of our rural communities. I will work to bring economic advancement to the 69th district while protecting our rural community values and culture.
  • Embracing a Constitutional Government-- Thomas Jefferson described the Tennessee constitution as the “least imperfect and most republican of the state constitutions.” The Tennessee Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, and the U.S. Constitution are the documents that will guide my work as a Representative for Dickson, Hickman, and Lewis Counties.

I am passionate about education policy. While I understand the desire to make sure every child has access to the best educational options, we must ensure that our efforts for school choice enhance our public education system.

I am passionate about freedom of speech and am concerned about any public policy that seeks to censor ideas.

I am passionate about civil and human rights.

I look up to many people, but in this campaign I have drawn inspiration from Abraham Lincoln. His rise from humble beginnings to achieving the highest office in the land isn't the only reason I have taken inspiration from him. His unyielding support of democracy and insistence that Union was worth saving are also inspiring as is his ability to form a strong cabinet composed of many of his political rivals. His leadership during a time of turmoil is something I have admired for many years.

I have the ability to understand complex matters and make them easier to understand. I listen to all sides of an argument before making a decision. I have a lasting desire to make the world a better place.

The most important responsibility for someone elected to serve as State Representative is that they are available to the constituents and that they represent the people they serve.

I remember the election of President Ronald Reagan. I remember my dad being very interested in the news leading up to election day. I was 9 years old at the time, and I have memories of our family not getting out of the car at the grocery store because my dad wanted to listen to news about the upcoming election on the radio. I remember playground conversations with my classmates where we discussed who we would vote for in the election. And I remember attending an election night party with my parents and everyone there celebrating when Reagan was declared the winner.

My very first job was at Burger King. I worked there from the summer of after my sophomore year until I went back to school for my senior year. I have great memories from those days, and still refer back to the lessons I learned.

I believe that every state should establish independent redistricting commissions.

The committees I would like to be part of are: Education Administration, Education Instruction, Civil Justice, and Commerce.

I believe that compromise is necessary in policymaking.
