Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I learned the importance of hard work at an early age. I was the first in my family to attend & graduate college, a single parent for 11 years and I worked my way up in the food industry. My career focus was the agriculture & the meat industry, once at a plant facility, then marketing, product development, supply chain management, and eventually leading sales teams across the country. Often, I was the only women in sales management with my employers.

In my career, I had to be strong, listen and to pick my battles with logic and reason. My life focused on working with others, listening, and having constructive conversations to reach consensus. These are the same skills needed to be impactful in the Missouri House of Representatives.

Who do you look up to? Whose example would you like to follow, and why?

Poliically, it would be Ronald Reagan. He was a great communicator and he brought people together for the common good. He was tough but also approachable, rational, and logical. He inspired people with his optimism and his courage. He not only wanted to heal the American economy but to protect individual liberties. He was determined to remove barriers so individuals would be encouraged to contribute to society, find their purpose and achieve their dreams.

Personally, it would be my grandparents, my parents, and several wonderful educators. Through their example, I witnessed the strength of their belief in God and strong faith. They were all role models for a strong work ethic and provided understanding that we are part of something bigger and have a role to play.
