I’m so grateful to have support from so many dedicated leaders! From my 30+ years as a community member, my service on local committees, and my 8 years on the THPRD Board, these folks can speak to my impact in Washington County and beyond.

All these local leaders live in and/or care deeply about Washington County residents, but those with an * by their name live in District 2 as well!
