I’m running for Larimer County Commissioner to put people first — not politics, not insiders, not special interests.
For too long, everyday residents have been expected to adapt to decisions made without them. I believe government works best when it listens first, collaborates openly, and acts with courage.
When we center working families, small businesses, seniors, and young people in our decisions, we build communities that are stronger, safer, and more resilient. That means recognizing the unique needs of Wellington, Timnath, Berthoud, Estes Park, Fort Collins, Loveland — and every rural community in between — and making sure no one is left out of the conversation.
I’m running because I’ve spent years fighting to get into the rooms where decisions are made. Now, I’m ready to be one of the decision-makers — and I won’t stop showing up for the people of Larimer County.
This campaign is rooted in collaboration, accountability, and action. Every resident deserves a fair shot, a safe community, and a future they can build right here at home.
People First. Community Strong.
That’s not just a slogan — it’s how I will lead.


When we invest in our youth, we invest in our future. Every young person deserves to feel connected to their community and supported on their path to adulthood. I will champion opportunity and pathways that ensure our youth are seen, valued, and empowered.

Home is the foundation of a strong community. Everyone—teachers, first responders, working families, and seniors—deserves the dignity and stability of a safe, affordable place to call home. I am committed to expanding housing options across Larimer County so people can put down roots, build their futures, and stay in the communities they love.

Strong communities are built on strong local businesses. Small businesses are the heart of Larimer County. I will work to reduce unnecessary red tape, support entrepreneurs, and foster local economic growth that keeps our dollars and opportunities right here at home.

Safety is a shared responsibility—and a shared priority. Wildfire affects all of us, and I'm committed to supporting strong mitigation strategies, resilient infrastructure, and emergency preparedness to protect every neighborhood—from the foothills to the plains.

From our small towns to our rural roads, every resident matters. Communities like Wellington, Berthoud, Timnath, Estes Park, Red Feather, and the entire unincorporated county deserve a commissioner who listens deeply and leads with local values. I will prioritize community engagement through a contact form on my website, ensuring that everyone has a voice.

A healthy community cares for the whole person. My lived experience informs my unwavering commitment to continue strengthening mental health services, crisis response programs, and community-based supports. Every resident should have access to compassionate care that helps them rise, recover, and move forward.

Growth should reflect our shared values and protect what makes Larimer special. I believe in thoughtful, community-led planning that preserves open spaces, respects agricultural heritage, and ensures development enhances—not erodes—the character of our county.

Every resident deserves safe, reliable ways to move through their community. I will champion improvements to road safety, multimodal options, and infrastructure investments that connect our towns, support daily life, and improve mobility for everyone—drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians alike throughout the entire county.

Environmental stewardship is essential to who we are. From water and wildlife to open space and clean air, our natural resources define Larimer County. As we move towards our website launch, I will continue working to protect these vital resources through sustainable practices and smart environmental planning.

Public service is a trust—and I will honor it every day. I will always lead with integrity, accessibility, and accountability—never bought, never bossed, and guided only by the people of Larimer County. People First – Community Strong isn’t just a slogan; it’s my commitment to you.

Strong communities stand firm, even when federal leadership is unstable. With growing uncertainty in Washington, Larimer County must be prepared to protect its people, services, and values—no matter who is in power. I am committed to strengthening our local capacity, stabilizing essential services, and ensuring our community remains resilient and self-sufficient in the face of federal disruption.

A thriving county is one where every person can access the care they need. Larimer County faces growing needs in public health, addiction support, senior services, and family assistance programs. I understand how vital these supports are. To stay updated on our initiatives, I encourage you to fill out the contact form or sign up for our email updates. I will work to expand access to preventative care, improve coordination across agencies, and ensure our health and human service systems meet people where they are—with dignity, compassion, and respect.
