In their own words

Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I am a wife, mother, civil servant, and rescue dog owner. I am not in politics for the notoriety but to fight for those who do not have a voice to fight for themselves. I pride myself on being a woman of integrity and grit. I am willing to put in the work and ensure that ALL of my constituents are adequately represented in Indianapolis. I am not beholden to the President, Governor, or lobbyists. I am responsible for being the voice for Senate District 38.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Public Education:

We must make meaningful investments in public education. I strongly support our public schools and believe the current voucher system has undermined their stability. Educators deserve compensation that reflects their value and contributions to our communities.Healthcare:

Healthcare must be both accessible and affordable. Too many Hoosiers—especially in rural communities—face limited options and rising costs. I will advocate for policies that expand access, reduce costs, and ensure that no one is left behind based on where they live. Hoosiers should not have to choose between healthcare and being able to pay their rent.Utilities:

The Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission must better serve the public interest. Utility rates have continued to rise without sufficient infrastructure improvements. I will push for stronger oversight, greater transparency, and real accountability to protect consumers.

Additionally, corporations should pay the same sales tax on utilities as residents. Fairness must be applied across the board.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

The property tax legislation passed in 2025 has placed an unfair burden on homeowners and small communities. I support repealing this law and correcting the formula to ensure it is equitable and sustainable.

If left unaddressed, this issue will continue to strain essential local services including: police, fire departments, schools, and local governments, and threaten the long-term viability of small communities.
