I want to be your council representative because I know and love the neighborhoods that make up District 18. You can count on me to be well-informed about all the important issues that face us now and in the future, and you can rest assured that I will be an accessible and effective advocate for great schools, smart growth, and progressive ideas that improve the overall quality of life in our District and our city.

Over the past 29 years, I’ve gotten to know many district residents on those occasions when we’ve all come together to build playgrounds, plant trees, attend PTO meetings and advocate for neighborhood-friendly, smart growth with entities such as the Mayor’s office, the Metro Council, Vanderbilt, NES, and Metro Codes. I am truly honored and humbled by the fact that I can count so many dedicated volunteers, public servants and businesspeople in the District as friends and that so many of you have encouraged me to run for this council seat.

For those of you whom I have not yet met, please call me at 615-383-6604 or email me at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . I’d love to meet face-to-face, discuss whatever’s on your mind, and earn your trust. I also invite you to attend one of the many events that my campaign will hold or that I will be attending. Make sure to introduce yourself!

I will work diligently every day during this campaign to meet with as many district residents as possible, listen to your ideas and concerns, and continue to educate myself about the most important issues we face as a District and as a city.

Together, we can ensure that our neighborhoods in District 18 continue to flourish!

Sincerely,
