Hello
I am a fierce advocate for the 51st District and the people of Michigan with proven results. My 26 years in the service industry have shown me the value of hearing a person's needs, and the importance of meeting each person where they are. Anticipating and providing for those needs is not only what makes me good at my job, it's my favorite part. I will bring my drive to support, provide for and listen to our community with me to the Michigan House of Representatives because I firmly believe, we should leave each and every person we meet and place we are, better than we found it.
