I'm the only candidate for Treasurer with a degree in Accounting and Business Administration. This office oversees millions of your tax dollars every year and requires a qualified leader who understands how to manage them with care and accountability. Our Treasurer's Office needs an accountant, not an attorney. This is why voters across Chesapeake, from every political background, are coming together to support me for Treasurer.
Experience matters. For eight years, I led teams, managed daily financial operations, oversaw revenue and collections, and maintained multiple technical systems - all while meeting strict audits and deadlines.
The values I stand for were shaped by where I come from. I was raised on a small farm in a tiny community along the Great Lakes by my great-grandparents.
They were first-generation Americans who had lived through many historical periods of the 1900s: the Great Depression, World War II, civil rights, and labor laws.
They taught me the value of hard work and standing up for what is right. And that has stayed with me as I built my life, moving across the East Coast, and eventually here from New York following a military relocation in 2008. I am proud to have called Chesapeake home now for almost 20 years, raising my three sons with my husband in the heart of Great Bridge.
Because of my background and the pride I have in our city, I am running to be your City Treasurer. I believe we are at a crossroads in our democracy. At every level, from local to federal, we are seeing a breakdown in trust, transparency, and fairness in how government serves the people. It is time to restore confidence, accountability, and integrity in public service.
The Treasurer's Office may not make headlines, but it matters. This office impacts every resident, small business and city service. And you deserve a Treasurer who works for you, the people.
Sincerely,
Chesapeake is at a crossroads, and your support can make the difference. We need to raise funds to fight and campaign, and every dollar counts. If you believe in a better future for our city, please donate today.
