Building a Better Brooklyn Center Together

I am committed to representing all residents of Brooklyn Center fairly and equitably. With a focus on promoting a vibrant, economically diverse community, ensuring fiscal responsibility, and enhancing public safety, my vision is to create a city that thrives for everyone. Join me in building a better Brooklyn Center together!

Hi, I’m running for Brooklyn Center City Council because I genuinely care about our city and want to make a real difference. As Chair of the Housing Commission and a member of the Finance Commission, I have a unique view of what Brooklyn Center needs and how we can seize opportunities to grow.

My top priority is making sure our neighborhoods are safe and that everyone feels secure. I’m also passionate about bringing in diverse businesses to boost our economy and create new opportunities. I believe in using common-sense solutions to keep government spending efficient, accountable, and transparent.

When it comes to housing, I support a balanced approach to ensure we have safe and accessible options for everyone in our community.

I’m committed to working closely with you, staying engaged with what’s happening in our city, and making decisions that truly benefit us all. Together, we can make Brooklyn Center a place where everyone feels valued and heard. Your support means a lot, and I’m here to serve with integrity, honesty, and respect.

My priorities

As a dedicated member of this community since 1999, I have witnessed the strength and resilience of our community. I have seen how we can come together to overcome challenges and build a better future for ourselves and future generations. I believe that by working together, we can address the issues that matter most to our residents and create positive change in our city.

My roots run deep in this community—I’ve lived in Brooklyn Center since 1999 with my husband of 28 years, Tony, and our two kids. We chose this city for its potential, great location, and strong sense of community.

Professionally, I work for NMDP, a global nonprofit leader in cell therapy. I create user-friendly websites that help people get things done quickly. I love collaborating with smart, creative teams because I believe that working together leads to the best solutions.

In my free time, family always comes first. I’m an avid reader, I love watching documentaries, and I enjoy getting involved in our community through volunteering. And I’m always on the hunt for the perfect chicken wing!
