Deerfield Park District Commissioner - 24 years
The single most pressing issue facing our (board, district, etc.) is , and this is what I intend to do about it. Covid 19. I intend to continue full support of our Park District staff who have been outstanding in their ability to pivot and adapt to constantly changing governmental mandates, guidelines, and protocols throughout the last year. They have made the Deerfield Park District one of the most successful districts in the entire Chicago area in maintaining the operation of programs, services, and facilities through the entire pandemic.

Park District Commissioner
The single most pressing issue facing our (board, district, etc.) is , and this is what I intend to do about it. While we continue to navigate through the COVID-19 crisis, the most pressing issue facing our City that the Council can address is assisting our local businesses to recover from pandemic-related setbacks. I have been meeting with local business owners and listening to their concerns. They have shared with me some ideas as to possible solutions. If elected to serve as a councilwoman, I would cultivate those relationships and share what I learned with the Council and city s business development resources. This way we could work together to support our local business owners. This is the first step towards revitalizing our retail districts.
