We love our community on James Island, but sometimes we don’t get the results we need from City Hall. I’m running for City Council to be an effective leader for James Island - and get results for our community.

This morning our family went to the Baxter-Patrick James Island Library to cast our vote in the Charleston City Council election! It was so special to have our twin boys see their mom’s name on the ballot as we teach them the importance of service to community and civic engagement.
