A lifelong resident of Missouri, I currently live in Manchester with my husband Todd and three sons. I am a practicing attorney and a small business owner. After growing up in Steelville, Missouri, I attended Missouri State University and later attended the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Law.
I am a strong advocate for education, women's reproductive rights, and common sense gun legislation. My children currently attend public schools, so I know firsthand the difficulties public schools are facing in Missouri, including low teacher pay. I am a strong advocate for public education, and I want to strengthen the public school system in Missouri, not weaken it.
As a woman, reproductive rights are very important to me, and I will work hard to make sure that Missouri women have control over their own reproductive health. Missourians have had enough of the government inserting itself into the private decisions between a woman, her family, and her doctor.
Growing up in rural Missouri, I understand that responsible gun ownership is a cornerstone of our country and state. But at the same time, I know that common-sense gun laws are needed to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people, and to keep guns out of schools so our children are safe.
I have focused my law practice for 14 years on helping Missouri workers resolve disputes with their employers. I advise my clients on employment discrimination, harassment, retaliation, and wage and hour issues. I know firsthand the hardships Missouri workers have faced in the workplace, and I have dedicated my career to helping them.
I hope I have your support for this campaign. Please reach out to volunteer or donate to my campaign.
