What was your first job as an adult and what did you learn from it?
Education team coordinator for the UMKC School of Medicine. I built wonderful relationships with the students I worked with and learned to focus on people first.
What are you doing to make Topeka a stronger community?
I am very proud to be on the board of the Greater C.W. Potwin Foundation and work on the holiday sets that are displayed in the Potwin Place neighborhood throughout the year. Driving through Potwin Place is a holiday tradition for many Topekans, and I love knowing our efforts are creating core memories for local children.
In your opinion, what does Topeka need the most right now?
Property tax relief. The continued increases to property values and taxes the last few years are impacting many.
What is your walk-up song?
“Good To Be Alive” by Andy Grammer. Reminds me to enjoy every day because it’s the only one we have.
What is your favorite locally owned business?
The Yoga Space. I have been practicing yoga there for eight-plus years and their teachers are the absolute best.
