You are well known for standing up to power, and doing what is right, even when it comes at great personal and professional cost. You have been serving as the President of the Peoria Unified School District Governing Board up until very recently, when just such crossroads had to be traversed. Tell us, very briefly what happened in your District? You’ve said your journey into public service began simply as a mom standing up for your child during the masking debates and helping other families find their voice.

How do you respond to those who misunderstand your advocacy journey and the heart behind your involvement? You earned the nickname “The Peoria Mom” because of your willingness to show up, ask questions, and advocate for families. What did those early school board meetings teach you about leadership and community engagement? As you campaign for the Arizona House in LD28, what are the top priorities you want to focus on to help strengthen your community and the state as a whole?
