Top Three Priorities
1. No new taxes, and small business relief. Residents want lower costs. Small businesses want relief and consistency. Let's give it to them. 2. Help seniors and veterans. They want a California-type property tax freeze, lower healthcare costs, and stronger, more accessible exemptions. Let's give it to them. 3. Education reform. Parents want literacy-based reform, earlier access to careers, and tax credits. These are teacher-approved solutions. Let's give it to them.
Why are you running?
As a mom, teacher and volunteer, I live the same challenges as most Topsham families. Paychecks don't stretch, kids leave school unprepared, and seniors are taxed out of their homes. After 8 years of one-party control, Augusta chased national fights instead of local needs. I started on food stamps, beat cancer at 21, and worked off assistance. I'm running to stop new taxes, cut harmful regulations, reform education and put Topsham first — real community results — not more divisive politics.
What is one way Maine is on the right track? What is one way the state is on the wrong track?
Right track: Mainers still show up for each other in schools, on sports fields, and shop locally. Our community spirit goes beyond Augusta politics. Wrong track: We have the fifth-highest tax burden in the country. Augusta keeps adding taxes and regulations while working families, seniors and veterans fall behind. After 8 years of one-party control and more than 30 new or increased taxes, incomes don't stretch, and too many kids graduate unprepared. We need real community results.
As one of several dozen legislators in your chamber, how would you make a measurable difference for your constituents?
I will be a consistent and strong voice for everyday residents and a force against partisan division. We are legislators, not social media influencers. I will work for real community results and use every resource available. Having once relied on public assistance, I value it, but fraud undermines the entire system. I will push for stronger accountability to end the growing wake of fraud victims.
Surveys show the economy is the top concern of voters. What is a specific proposal addressing Maine voters’ economic anxieties that you’d work to make law?
No new taxes while eliminating the new Netflix and Prime Video tax. Give independent small businesses relief. End the healthcare certificate of need: The Certificate of Need Law is driving up costs. Create senior and veteran property tax reform and more accessible exemptions. Demand mandatory consequences for fraud that adds to inflation and harms real people. This new direction will get us back on the right track. It will deliver real community results for families, seniors and veterans.
