Bio
Portsmouth has been both my home and my professional base for over 15 years. But, I also spent 30 years as a Realtor in East Tennessee.. As a real estate broker, I’ve spent decades navigating complex negotiations, solving problems creatively, and working with people from all walks of life to help them achieve their goals. That experience has given me a deep understanding of housing, development, municipal regulations, and—most importantly—how to listen, build consensus, and get things done.
Those are the same skills I would bring to the City Council: practical, results-oriented thinking; the ability to weigh competing interests fairly; and a steady commitment to the long-term good of our community.
I’m running because I care about Portsmouth’s future and believe in thoughtful, transparent leadership. I’m not interested in pushing an agenda—I’m here to work hard, listen closely, and help shape policies that keep Portsmouth livable, vibrant, and inclusive for generations to come. I respectfully ask for your vote on November 4th.
