Candidate for Hope Mills Board of Commissioners (2025)

I am a retired banking professional with experience as a teller, teller supervisor, and assistant manager. My most
rewarding role has been as a mother and grandmother, affectionately known as 'Mimi'. I take pride in my three
successful children: my daughter, an elementary school teacher; my middle son, who runs a handyman service; and
My youngest son is a dedicated minister. Additionally, I have seven grandchildren. My career has equipped me with
valuable public engagement and problem-solving skills, which I intend to utilize as a Commissioner to drive
positive change in our community.

I advocate for responsible growth in Hope Mills, emphasizing the need for a thoughtful development approach that
allows our infrastructure to keep pace with expansion. Many residents have raised legitimate concerns about rapid
growth impacting the tranquility of our neighborhoods.

I propose a temporary moratorium on new construction while we collaboratively develop a strategic plan for our town's future.

As Commissioners, our primary responsibility is to serve the community and incorporate residents' feedback into
our decisions. For example, a recent proposal to extend terms to four years was approved without community
support, highlighting the need for increased transparency. If elected, I will prioritize constituents' voices in our initiatives.

My husband and I moved to Hope Mills ten years ago, drawn by its small-town charm, which we are committed to
preserving amidst challenges like traffic and overcrowding. Together, I believe we can restore the unique appeal of
Hope Mills and create a vibrant environment for all.
