Bringing Common Sense to Local Government
Hi! Thanks for visiting me here. I'd like to introduce myself and share some information about why I'm running for this seat.
​
I believe local government should be accessible, transparent, and focused on the people who call St. Augustine HOME.
​
As a longtime community resident (since the '80s), I decided to run after consistently hearing residents say they feel increasingly unheard as our city grows. I believe effective public service begins with listening.
​
My campaign is centered on 3 core priorities:
​RESPONSIBLE GROWTH:
Growth should be guided by infrastructure, traffic, neighborhood impact, and long-term sustainability.
​
STRONGER COMMUNICATION: Communication and transparency between city/county leaders, residents and businesses must improve to build trust and find solutions.
​
PRESERVING OUR CITY'S CHARACTER:
At the same time, we must protect the historic identity and livability that makes St. Augustine unique.
​​
I believe that when residents are heard and respected, the entire community benefits.
​
I'm not a career politician. I am running because I care deeply about our city's future and am committed to thoughtful, responsive leadership.
​
My goal is simple: to help keep St. Augustine a place where residents feel heard, respected, and proud to live.
