Fun Fact

I spent 8 years as a farmer, growing fresh produce and deepening my passion for agriculture and sustainability — I believe everyone deserves access to healthy, natural food. I’m the proud owner of Aloe Natural, a local coffee and smoothie shop that celebrates wellness and community. I’ve been serving Chelsea since I was 14 years old — from cleaning our streets to organizing youth programs. I’m a mom of two, including a college sophomore, and they’re my biggest motivation to keep fighting for a better future. I love to garden, cook, and connect with nature — my happy place is anywhere with soil, sunlight, and community. I hold a Master’s in Marketing and believe in using creativity and strategy to make real change

Past Experience

I’ve spent years fighting for Chelsea — not just talking about change, but making it happen. Proven Leadership: As your City Councilor, I helped secure $40 million in ARPA funds that transformed our community — creating affordable homeownership programs, diversifying school staff, feeding families, and providing housing support. Community Advocate: From distributing air conditioners to elders during heat waves to relocating families after fires, I’ve always stepped up when my neighbors needed help most. Chelsea Strong Roots: I’ve been serving this city since I was 14 years old — cleaning our streets, organizing youth programs, and standing up for working families. Champion for Equity: I fought for the creation of a sports Director position so every child in Chelsea can have a sense of belonging and access to recreation. Small Business Owner: As the owner of Aloe Natural, I understand the challenges our local entrepreneurs face and I’ve worked to uplift small businesses — the heart of our local economy. Educated and Committed: With a master’s in marketing, I bring both experience and strategy to the table to keep Chelsea moving forward.

My Top Issues

Invest in local businesses

Help our existing businesses survive in our diverse community. Embrace our small businesses.

Collaborating with organizations to address food deserts

Now with snap on the line we must partner up with organizations that have and will continue to take care of our most vulnerable community.

Increasing affordable housing options

Rent Control, changing the equation to our "affordable Housing". Affordable Housing isn't affordable to our hard-working families.
