CITY COUNCIL
WHY I'M RUNNING
Building a Stronger Howell - Together
I’m running for Howell City Council because I believe in the power of local government to make a real difference in people’s daily lives. Howell is a place filled with potential, history, and heart- and I want to help move it forward in a way that reflects the voices and values of the people who live here.
As a proud Howell resident and someone who has dedicated my career to public service, I’ve seen how much can be accomplished when leaders listen first, communicate clearly, and lead with integrity. My background in education, public policy, and nonprofit leadership has taught me that the best solutions come from collaboration- not politics.
I’m committed to building a city government that is transparent, inclusive, and responsive to the needs of all residents. Whether it’s supporting working families, making sure local infrastructure keeps pace with growth, or ensuring that community members feel heard and respected, I’m ready to work hard for the city we all care about.
This campaign isn’t about me- it’s about Howell, and about making sure this community continues to be a place where people feel proud to live, work, and raise their families.
