I grew up in Akron with a single mother in government housing. Some days we were unsure of what we were going to eat.

I'm honored to serve as your current Ohio State Representative for HD 34, representing Stow, Hudson, Tallmadge, Munroe Falls, Silver Lake, North Akron and Northwest Akron! When I was 13, my mother finished her teaching degree and became a full time teacher. Our lives improved; better housing, more food security, and less stress. I realized at that time how education could transform a person’s life. I graduated from North High School and went on to attend the University of Akron, The Ohio State University, and Harvard University. I now hold multiple degrees and am proud of my accomplishments; yet I have never forgotten my childhood experiences. Those years taught me how important it was and still is for the government to provide ladders out of poverty for people working to achieve their goals. The assistance we received ensured we survived, and eventually thrived. I serve as a JAG attorney in the Army Reserve and previously was president of the Akron Board of Education. I began serving as House District 34 State Representative on Jan. 4, 2025. My district encompasses Stow, Hudson, Tallmadge, Munroe Falls, Silver Lake, North Akron and Northwest Akron.

My bill would refund homeowners when their property taxes exceed 5% of their income. Help me get this bill through the Ways and Means Committee by calling and asking for a hearing.

Proud to be among a great class of Summit County Democratic candidates who will work hard to protect Ohio workers, their work conditions, pay, healthcare and retirement!

We can't ignore rising costs any longer in Ohio, and we need to work together to find a solution.

There’s no better way to start the Fall season than to join me for my golf outing on Sept. 28 at Silver Lake Country Club. Don’t golf? Join us for dinner and the silent auction afterward! See details here:

I stand with our public schools. I appreciated the opportunity to attend the Tallmadge Chamber of Commerce’s State of the Schools luncheon, during which attendees heard some hard facts: our schools are in trouble; not because of mismanagement, but because the state has stopped paying its share of the cost. I’ll keep fighting to find ways to get our public schools the funding they need to provide an excellent education to our children.

As a state rep, I try to support local businesses as much as I can. My office can also help small businesses navigate conflicts with state agencies. Don't hesitate to reach out if you need my assistance!
