What issue will you focus on? Ensuring children and families have access to great parks and recreational activities; that families continue to receive water that exceeds the minimum requirements, ensuring that Heber continues to have a voice at the county and state level and making sure that funds are being spent appropriately. Why did you decide to run in your respective race? We’ve done a lot for Heber children, families and the community in the last four years, but there’s still work to do. There are park projects to do, recreation programs to start and water and sewer system upgrades to finish – I’m excited for the future of Heber!

What is your strongest asset? Being a people person. My relationships and friendships allow me to make decisions that are best for the community. I understand what’s important to children and families in Heber and if I have it wrong people aren’t afraid to tell me! I use their feedback to help me vote.

Why should the voters vote for you? I’m committed to working hard for Heber children and families. I’ve proven that we can make change happen in Heber, especially when it’s a good thing for our families! We’ll keep having Movie Nights, Easter Egg hunts, Summer Splash, Fall Fiesta, Santa in the Park and more!
