I began my Democratic life of service in Washington D.C. and continued

here in what is now the 91st House District of Georgia, where the immediate past Representative, Pamela Stephenson, served since 2003.  

​

I worked alongside her, helping her to become elected, time and again. ‘Positively Pam’ made a difference in this HD, and the people have agreed until her resignation in 2020. As the HD chair, I worked to bring the concerns of the people to our legislators and helped to find solutions. Pam has supported me at every turn and bestowed upon me an official *Resolution - Georgia of House of Representatives for #HD92, citing the good works I have fostered district-wide.  

​

 Today, as your Representative, I am perfectly positioned,  honored, and humbled to continue in the role of your

State Representative!
