Candidates everywhere are waiting nervously for polls to close. Even with the nerves, many candidates say that--win or lose--they don't regret running for office. I couldn't agree more. Deepening my knowledge of LWSD and local government leaders this year has been a privilege and a whole lot of fun!

If you've heard my explain my "why," you've heard about the teachers that were pivotal to my K-12 education and my life. Our teachers are amazing, and they have my unending gratitude for what they do.

Thank you to the LWEA members of WEA-PAC for this recommendation. I am honored by your support.

(Also, I loved seeing a PTSA shirt there! Horace Mann was representing!)

I'm a big supporter of infrastructure like this. After all, the majority of K-12 students aren't old enough to drive, and trails like this allow them and their families to engage in healthy movement and get around independently. Thank you to everyone who made this trail a reality!

At this point, it's too soon to say who my opponent will be in the November 4 election, with runner-up vote totals currently at 19.41% and 18.52%. Whoever it will be, I look forward to continuing to connect with community at doors and events and hearing what matters to you!

Thank you again!

We need to preserve the programs and teachers that make LWSD students great, while also ensuring the financial sustainability of our district.
August 6, 2025 at 10:01 PM
I'll build on my experience serving the district and our PTSAs and families as well as my lived experience as a special education, highly capable education, and performing arts parent with three kids in the district.

Thank you for seeing the strength of my commitment to all our students and my connection with our community. I want to be your next board direction in position 4 to bring fresh perspective and new energy to LWSD.
