Thank you for your financial support
ACCESSIBLE
"Savannahians and surrounding citizens are not afraid to voice their opinions. My constituents tell me exactly how they feel, whether they agree or disagree with me. Chatham County voters have no fear of voicing their concerns and are more than willing to have open honest dialogue and engage in courageous conversations. It's the one aspect of community I value the most. I am accessible, I hear them out, consider all things and uphold state policy & procedure."
COLLABORATIVE
"Recntly passed legislation has had a major impact on our operations and impacted our citizens voting rights in a major way. It is imperative we all work together to counter the negative impact on any and all voters. We have to remain focused on compliance and ensuring every voter the opportunity to cast their ballot for every upcoming election."
EXPERIENCED
"We have been under major national scrutiny and our processes have remained effective and efficient through litigation and legislation. We have piloted and pivoted."
The reason for my service to CommUNITY is simple...Love of CommUNITY. Savannah is My Home. I have chosen to live here, work here. I fell in & out of love here. I reared a beautiful family here and instilled in My Children a genuine love and appreciation for commUNITY. I am rooted in Savannah and Savannah is rooted in me. The people I love and care for reside here. They are all directly impacted by the policies implemented here. Politics at play here affect my friends and family. Decisions made impact those I care for most. I do not simply offer my time and talent. This is a small part of my legacy work. For love of my city, my family, my colleagues & commUNITY.
