In their own words
Who are you? Tell us about yourself.
I am a longtime advocate for working families and community-centered leadership. I began my career in special education, working directly with students and families and supporting individualized learning needs in public schools. Currently, I am the Director of Human Resources and Equity for a local unionized nonprofit, where I lead organizational strategy, workforce development, and equity initiatives. My public service and advocacy work focuses on increasing access to resources so families can thrive (not just survive), strengthening public schools, and ensuring that people’s voices are heard in the decisions that affect their lives.
I live in Weber County with my spouse, a veteran, and our three daughters.
