I want our future generation to be proud to call Portsmouth home and I will endeavor to leave it a better place than when I moved here.

I care about Portsmouth's citizens, quality of life, and business development.

I have served on the Portsmouth Economic Development Committee since 2020. The committee’s accomplishments include assisting the Town in creating an ISM manager position and renewing the Newport Polo lease, which resulted in increased revenues for the Town.

 

I want to help Portsmouth continue to prosper by ensuring proper funding for our town’s Capital Improvement needs, School District, and essential services while maintaining financial responsibility.

 

I want to see the implementation of the upcoming town-sponsored curbside garbage and recycling collectionWHILE keeping the transfer station open for operations for those who choose to dispose of their household refuse themselves, as well as for large diversion items .

Portsmouth has the best schools on Aquidneck Island; I want to ensure that continues by maintaining the excellent working relationship the Town Council has with the Portsmouth School Committee.

 
About me

I was born in south Louisiana and grew up in the Florida panhandle in a city called Niceville.
 

I married my wonderful husband, Karl, seven years ago. We purchased our home in Portsmouth in January 2020, and we love calling Portsmouth home. We are licensed DCYF foster parents and recently adopted our son, Oliver, who attends school within the Portsmouth School District.

I worked on merchant vessels in the Gulf of Mexico, Puerto Rico, and New York City Harbor for several years. I also assisted my parents in running their flower shop in Niceville (which has been in business since the 1960s) until we sold it. Before moving to Portsmouth, I changed careers and started working in the financial sector; I am currently a supervisor for a local community-oriented bank in Portsmouth.
