Candidate Statement:
I am a native of Fredericktown who has enjoyed a 29-year career in state government, working in social services, correctional, court and law enforcement environments, specializing in workforce development, labor relations and dispute resolution. I have negotiated many agreements and served on many boards and committees throughout my career. I now want to apply my experience to a role that will benefit my hometown. My vision is a council that is future-focused, fiscally responsible and creative when approaching challenges; one that encourages public participation and engages with residents so decisions are made with community input; and one that drives economic development and beautification efforts while preserving Fredericktown’s unique heritage and traditions.
