I am running for Rapid City Council because our community deserves leadership that listens, honors our shared history, and works for a future where everyone belongs.

As a lifelong advocate for working families, the elderly, and youth, I believe the people closest to the issues hold the solutions.

Ward 4 needs a councilmember who will center housing stability, public safety rooted in community care, responsible development, and protection of the Black Hills for future generations. I will bring collaboration, transparency, and accountability to City Hall—bridging divides and ensuring decisions are made with, not for, our community.

I am running to serve with integrity, courage, and a deep commitment to the people of Rapid City.
