Family & Personal Life

I'm a proud mother of two beautiful daughters. My journey into advocacy for affordable housing began when my now-husband and I found out we were pregnant with our first daughter when I was only 18 and he was 19.

We were fortunate to have supportive families and friends, but this experience opened my eyes to the challenges many young parents face when trying to create stability for their families. Since my career change, being able to serve families of all kinds as they navigate the unknown of first-time home buying has been a huge blessing.

In my free time, I enjoy arranging flowers, Pilates/Lagree, volunteering, painting, and supporting Kansas City's sports teams with my husband.
