Delivering Results for Our Community

I have been honored to serve as Manassas City Treasurer since first being elected in 2016 and hope to continue my work for the people of Manassas.
I would greatly appreciate your support for re-election on November 2, 2021.
My father was a preacher and both of my parents worked very hard. They taught me the importance of honesty, integrity and service.
I hold a degree in Business Administration and have diverse professional experience ranging from managing my own construction company to business development in the publishing industry.
I am actively involved in our community, having served as Chair of the Manassas City Family Services Advisory Board and as a member of the Prince William County Regional Board of Directors of the Boys and Girls Clubs. I also served as a member of the Board of Directors of the Prince William County Arts Council and am a member of the Rotary Club of Manassas.
My husband John and I have four children, have lived for many years in the Rolling Road neighborhood of Manassas, and worship as members of Global Truth Ministries.
