I'm proud to be a lifelong resident of Tredyffrin township.  I grew up in Devon and graduated on Teamer Field, just like my husband Bob and our two fine sons.

My family's roots here run deep with parents who lived in Devon their whole lives and a husband raised in Berwyn whose 97 year old mother still lives in the house where he was raised.  My connections to this community remind me daily of what makes us special.  Our history, our people, and our enduring values.

I've been fortunate to experience all that Tredyffrin has to offer.  Softball at Devon-Stratford, Counseling at Teegarden Park, and watching our community evolve as Chesterbrook transformed from a working horse farm to a top rated residential community.  I learned from my father about the importance of balance between development and open space as he participated in the establishment of Wilson Farm Park.  Today, I continue to use my father's teaching for the benefit of the community as a member of the Parks and Rec board, Give T/E, and my involvement with the library as a fund raiser.

My family's devotion to the T&E area, has been expressed via motherhood, participation, and fire fighting by my husband and oldest son, service to our community has always been important.

As the wife of the assistant Chief at the Paoli Fire Company, I am uniquely aware of the needs of our first responders and their passion and devotion to our township.  Fire and EMS are essential to our community's future, and my insight into the challenges and opportunities facing our emergency services will enable me to ensure our first responders have what they need while advocating positive, responsible, sustainable changes to support this community.

I believe in thoughtful leadership rooted in community values.  I would be honored to have your support as we work together to ensure a safe, vibrant, and well-managed future for Tredyffrin township, all while reinstating fiscal transparency and respecting the hard earned money of all my fellow taxpayers.
