Welcome!
I am Running for The State Legislature in District 15 Because...
...our state is broken. And I have the experience, tenacity, and resolve to help forge a better future for Arizona.

Neighboring states are beating us to the punch on renewable energy installation because the legislature continues to look backward, rather than forward.

Our state economy continues to lack diversity. We were hit hardest in the housing collapse because we continue to rely on never-ending sprawl and development as our only means of economic growth.

How did we get here?
Our legislative and congressional redistricting in 2002 left us with fewer competitive districts than we had ten years prior. The result has been a legislature ruled by extremism and incapable of finding common ground.

I am running, not because I have an instant fix for all of these issues, but because I have the actual experience to point us in the right direction.

  • I served in the legislature from 2002-04 where I was chosen by the national Democratic Leadership Council as one of the "100 to Watch."
  • I was the state Energy Office Director, 2005-2006, where I worked to attract renewable energy businesses to Arizona.
  • I shepherded legislation through the legislature in 2008, which made major renewable energy projects possible in Arizona.
  • In 2008, I was the manager of the successful effort to defeat the $15 million payday loan industry ballot initiative.
  • I led an effort to reform the way we draw our congressional and legislative boundaries in order to make more competitive districts.
  • I am a proud real estate agent with a passion for historic properties and local businesses in Central Phoenix.
  • I am also a proud member of Local First AZ and the Phoenix Green Chamber of Commerce.
  • In the 1990s, I worked for various non-profit organizations in Phoenix, Washington DC and war-torn Bosnia.

We need a change in leadership, and we need experienced leaders to take advantage of all the opportunities at our fingertips here in Arizona.
