What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
This district deserves a qualified candidate and that is exactly why I am running. What makes me qualified for this office is the most important quality in a candidate and that's having a moral compass. My morals do not change and are always consistent with Scripture and conservative Republican values. I have and will continue to fight for the principles that we Virginians hold dear. I have also supported my husband every step of the way throughout his political career whether it's helping him legislating, speaking with constituents, advocating for those in need, or working with others. I am fully aware and ready to take on the full duties of being a candidate worthy of the twenty-fourth Senate District.

Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
The voters of the 24th Senate district have not had their voice in Richmond for sometime. I believe our representatives and our government should work for the people, not the other way around. I never intended to run for political office. But there came a point when community activism only gets you so far the time to roll up your sleeves and get the job done yourself.
VALUES
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality which permitted our system of limited government.
Strongly Agree
Any teaching to children on sex education in public schools must include all contraceptive methods, and should not show preference to abstinence.
Strongly Disagree
People should be allowed to use public restrooms, showers, and changing rooms based on "gender identity."
Strongly Disagree
Free speech is under attack on public university and college campuses.
Strongly Agree
Parents should be the primary authority in decisions affecting their minor children.
Strongly Agree
What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?
Mankind has a sinful nature and as a result we've learned that absolute power can corrupt the heart. Having lived through tyrannical power of a king, the founders had the foresight and wisdom to create a system with limited powers and installed checks and balances to limit power of the government and to depend on an educated populace to elected humble servants to protect our values and serve it's citizens.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a firm believer in Jesus Christ and I believe all of Scripture is God breathed. Personally, I believe it is my life's calling to serve and encourage others to enjoy the fullness knowing, loving and becoming like Jesus.
