My experience crafting solutions to the toughest problems sets me apart.
As your city council member, I have prioritized economic vitality, environmental sustainability, and health and safety. I have worked to protect and expand open space in Ward 3, supported residents and businesses most affected by COVID-19, and protected our small town character.
As a life long public servant, I have led efforts to expand COVID-19 (coronavirus) testing in Louisville and throughout Colorado. Working for two Colorado Governors and two senior U.S. Senators, I have helped craft solutions to provide quality, affordable health coverage while fighting against the repeal of the Affordable Care Act. Examples and press coverage of my work are below.
