WELCOME
I am honored to represent Essex Junction and have thoroughly enjoyed the last four years meeting many of you and working on issues important to our community. 2020 will go into the books as a memorable year. The pandemic has disrupted nearly every aspect of our lives and brought to the surface the many inequities in our communities and support systems. I am running for re-election because I care deeply about the well-being and the future of Vermonters. We need voices in our legislature that represent our communities – as a working mom and small business owner I am that voice. I have a proven track record of leadership in the Statehouse and the Village and a commitment to our community. Please contact me with any questions. I appreciate your vote!
