Reason for Seeking Public Office:

I am running because I want to fight for our coal mining families and bring more well-paying jobs to our area. I am not running because I want to make a name for myself.

I love West Virginia. It's where I was born and raised and where my husband and I chose to raise our family. It pains me to see our young people being forced to leave the region just to find work.

I want to see our children and grandchildren stay in this beautiful community we call home. I'm running for the House of Delegates--to make our state a better place to work, live and raise a family.
