I am committed to utilizing my passion, experience, and energy to transform our county government into a citizen-driven vehicle.
I fell in love with Knoxville from the moment I stepped on campus at the University of Tennessee as a member of the Lady Vols Swim Team.
Now, as a young North Hills homeowner, I’m passionate about making Knox County the community I know it can be.
I’ve been involved with Keep Knoxville Beautiful, the TN Clean Water Network, TN Valley Golden Retriever Rescue and Knox County One Question; I serve on the North Hills Area Association Board and I Chair the city’s Better Building Board.
I see a huge opportunity to transform our county into a body of government that represents the needs of its constituents first and foremost and effectively engages the public in decisions that affect our lives.
I am focused on creating a citizen driven government, revitalizing our neighborhoods, growing local businesses, improving education and protecting everyone’s right to clean water.
My experience as a college athlete, community volunteer and local professional demonstrate my ability to focus on solutions to achieve the dreams we all have for this community.
I’m running for commission because I have the passion, experience and strong desire to serve the people of the 2nd District.
