I am a mother of three children plus a fur baby Pomeranian named Wolfie. I am a native and lifelong resident of Scottsdale. My mother is Norwegian born, my father is a second generation Italian and I have four siblings. I have worked as a commercial real estate agent and I currently own my own consulting firm. I graduated from Arizona State University with a Bachelors Degree in Business Administration from the W.P. Carey School of Business. In addition to working my way through college, I played rugby for the ASU Women’s Rugby Club team.

 

While many candidates for public office will claim to be supportive of conservative issues, I have a proven record of successfully championing our agenda. My record has earned me a reputation for challenging the status quo and not accepting the way things have always been done. Now more than ever, we need a decisive leader on the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors who has a proven record of getting results, and I am that leader.

During my tenure at the legislature, my primary focus was defending the integrity and security of our elections by, among several things, strengthening identification requirements to vote early in person and banning the practice of ballot harvesting. To restore our state’s fiscal integrity, I passed legislation actually reducing taxes (repealing the unpopular $32 vehicle license tax), modernized our tax code and cut government spending to balance our state’s budget. To grow our economy and support our businesses, I successfully slashed bureaucratic red tape and removed government barriers to people entering the workforce. During the Covid-19 pandemic, I was one of the first to fight to keep our economy and schools open and successfully imposed legal limitations on the Governor’s ability to ever impose a public health emergency in perpetuity on us again. I also championed greater public representation on licensing boards, reformed our tort system, banned child marriage, and increased access to women’s healthcare.
