As a dedicated resident of the County of Minburn, I'm committed to bringing positive change and effective leadership to our community. Here's a closer look at my motivations, qualifications, and vision for our future.

Why I'm running

I'm running for office in the County of Minburn to ensure our community continues to thrive. I want to ensure Division 6 isn’t just a political boundary, but a thriving community where everyone feels heard, valued, and supported.

About Me

I’m mother, wife, photographer, and lifelong resident of Division 6. My family has had a farm here for generations, and I grew up right here, experiencing the beauty and challenges of rural life firsthand. After spending some time away, I chose to move back and raise my own family in the place that shaped me. Division 6 is home to me; always has been and always will be.

 

My years of experience working across various departments in Strathcona County have provided me with invaluable insight into how large communities function. But the most important lessons I’ve learned are from the people, the stories they’ve shared and the challenges they’ve faced. I’ve worked in everything from agriculture and transportation to family and community services, economic development, and finance. This breadth of experience makes me uniquely positioned to understand the needs of our diverse community.

 

I want to ensure Division 6 isn’t just a political boundary, but a thriving community where everyone feels heard, valued, and supported. As a mother, a local business owner, and someone with deep roots in the area, I have a personal stake in making this place a great place to live and work. Division 6 should feel like home for everyone, whether you’ve been here for generations, like my family, or if you’ve just moved here. I’m here to listen to your concerns, work with you to find solutions, and bring our community closer together.
