For the last 30 years, I've sought ways to be active in the community. I currently serve the Ormond Beach Human Resource Board and Board of Adjustments and Appeals; and Leisure Services Advisory Board. Most recently, Governor DeSantis asked and I accepted a role on Florida's Small Business Advisory Board Network of Florida. In 2020, The Volusia Manufacturing Association named me "Women of the Year" for my female owned, small business. As CEO, I have experience with local ,state, and federal contracts. More importantly, I understand how government policies impact families and business, how our city commission can manage growth and spur job opportunities, and the need to protect our local resources. Today, my husband and I have three grown children, all living and working in the state of Florida. My grandchildren are constant reminders that we must preserve and protect the American Dream for future generations.
