What is one life experience you have that voters should know about?
I ran for US Congress in 2017-2018, and based upon that experience I wrote the book The Civil Graces Project: The Pursuit for Common Ground.
What sets you apart from other candidates?
I grew up in a large family, where I learned the value of teamwork in resolving differences and ensuring everyone's voice is heard. Throughout my career, I have been committed to improving our community's quality of life by ensuring everyone has a seat at the table. My experience running for U.S. Congress in 2017-2018 underscored the urgent need for unity, inspiring me to write The Civil Graces Project, a book focused on fundamental principles that unite us. As a real estate broker, I help families find housing and advocate for fair housing practices. As a small business owner, I established the Centreville Place Cafe + Market, a space for the community to gather, enjoy fresh local food, and provide jobs with fair wages. The idea of coming together to resolve problems also spurred a community effort to save and preserve Crebilly Farm in Westtown Township, demonstrating how neighbors can work together to create a better future for the entire community. Our country stands at a critical juncture, and we need leaders willing to listen and work hard to unite people. Our democracy is essential, as are the rights we have worked hard to achieve. We must continue to move forward together.
How do you plan to work across ideological lines to achieve shared goals?
After my Congressional race, I was disheartened by what was happening to our nation and the political process. There has to be a way to redefine the common ground, which is why I wrote my book--to begin that dialogue. Despite being at odds with one another, we need to remember our interconnectedness. All the signs are there. The key is to listen, seek to understand, and dialogue. Some things that are core to our democracy and rights are non-negotiable, and one must have wisdom to know how to navigate those times.
What would be your top three policy priorities in office?
Defending our Reproductive Freedom, Protecting our Environment, Strengthening Health Care and Mental Health Care.
The Committee of Seventy has partnered with the Carter Center to promote the Candidate Principles for Trusted Elections (www.principledcandidates.org) to improve the voting process, encourage honest leadership, and promote civic engagement. Do you support the Candidate Principles?
