I want to continue to represent Farmington as well as western Fayetteville on the Quorum Court. Although I am running for Quorum Court, I believe in representing every resident in our community, which means every voice matters, and I make it a priority to listen to anyone who reaches out with a concern or problem. Farmington is my forever home. I’ve lived in other places, but the hometown feel, strong sense of community, and camaraderie here are truly special. Initially, I grew up in North Little Rock, Arkansas where I graduated from NLR high school. I received a community scholarship which was a tremendous help to the family’s finances. Professionally, I was a grade schoolteacher and a public-school librarian in Olathe, Kansas. I moved to Farmington nineteen years ago to be closer to my daughter and grandson. I am an active member of Farmington United Methodist Church where I have been involved in various committees. During a church personality profile test, it was determined that I have a “Giving Heart.” It is an accurate description of me since I enjoy giving in so many ways, both at my church and also in the community. I love giving to people and I want to give my service to Washinton County.
