When you live in a city your entire life, you take on its identity as part of your own. Syracuse is more than just a place on a map; to me, it is part of my heart, mind and soul. It gives me great pride to have lived in Syracuse for more than 40 years. I am a first-generation college graduate and hold both a bachelor’s and master’s degree. While my education is one of my greatest accomplishments, I am most proud of my family—my husband and our two daughters.
I have nearly two decades of professional experience working both in the public and private sector, and more recently, an extensive track record as a committed community volunteer. The culmination of my Syracuse upbringing, education and experience has prepared and inspired me to seek the 1st District Council seat and gives me great honor to be part of the team (Common Council) that helps make Syracuse an even better place to live, work and raise a family. I am an advocate for all Syracuse residents and have an open line of communication. The Syracuse community is my family, and I am committed to bringing success for all.
