Protect Property Rights
No eminent domain for private gain. Property owners should not be forced to give up land so private companies can profit.
Candidate Overview
I’m a mother, grandmother, and small business owner who has lived, worked, and served across Pottawattamie County, Iowa for decades. I’m running for Pottawattamie County Supervisor to protect local families, defend property rights, safeguard water resources, support county employees, and bring accountability to county government.
My husband and I bought our first home in Council Bluffs in 2000, and since 2009 I have owned and operated a salon there. That work has connected me with residents from across the county and given me firsthand insight into the concerns of families, workers, retirees, and small-business owners.
Since 2007, my family has lived outside Oakland. Because I have lived and worked in both Council Bluffs and rural Pottawattamie County, I bring a balanced perspective that reflects the full county, not just one corner of it.
Too many residents feel unheard when decisions affect their land, water, taxes, and daily lives. I’m running to bring accountability, common sense, and respect back to county government.
In the Community
I have been volunteering, meeting with neighbors, and showing up in advocacy spaces across the community well before asking voters to support me for County Supervisor.
I have been active with Concerned Citizens of Pottawattamie County since 2020, have attended nearly every Board of Supervisors meeting in person since 2021, and have helped organize town halls and a candidate forum on county issues.
Local government should budget carefully, focus on real needs, and make decisions in the open. I support responsible budgeting and greater transparency so residents can trust how county money is being used.
If Pottawattamie County is going to grow, it needs housing that young people and working families can actually afford.
Strong communities are built when people can live here, stay here, and build their future here.
