After years of traveling the world, I chose to call Helena home in 2013. I spent seven months in 2020 as the Interim City Manager for Helena and learned a tremendous amount about how our city operates. Prior to that, my time serving with The Friendship Center highlighted the critical role of social services in our community and the need to ensure that our city supports all of its residents.
I am running for re-election to ensure that initiatives like the Housing Trust Fund are sustained, our city water system is prioritized, and our open lands are protected and maintained, among other important issues. I have learned a lot in my first term as a Commissioner and hope to keep serving my community for another four years.
