Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

As a teacher and a mother, I am focused on the future. I know firsthand the importance of a strong public education, affordable housing, accessible healthcare, and environmental stewardship. I am working to create a safer, healthier Oregon full of opportunity for future generations. When I left my classroom 4 years ago, it was to pursue new ways to give back to my community; to take action, and serve. As our Representative in House District 26, I have delivered on my campaign promises and offered responsive, stable leadership to my constituents. I know there is much more to do to make our state safer, more equitable, more sustainable, and more promising for all Oregonians.

I’ve lived in the communities of House District 26 most of my life. This is my home, and I’m honored to serve this special part of Oregon that has provided my family with so much. My values shape how I will continue to represent the biggest issues facing our state, such as housing and homelessness, public safety and workforce development. I remain focused on education funding stability, common sense gun safety, and ensuring comprehensive access to healthcare, including reproductive care.

I have worked closely with the jurisdictions I represent to deliver State funding for local projects including: the Sherwood Pedestrian Bridge, the Wilsonville I-5 Bridge upgrade study, transit-oriented workforce housing, Just Compassion Homeless Shelter, Wilsonville Community Sharing, and broadband infrastructure development throughout the district.
