I have lived in Elkridge for over 50 years (I graduated from Howard High School). I have a degree in Biology and have worked over the years as a cardiopulmonary technologist, an editor, a teacher, and a financial services provider. I have been an officer or board member of the Greater Elkridge Community Association, the Patapsco  Heritage Greenway, the Lawyers Hill Assembly Rooms and the Grace Episcopal Church vestry and childcare center board. (I co-led the effort to build a modern, 9000 sq ft childcare center several years ago.) I am vice chair of  the Howard County Environmental Sustainability Board.

I have enjoyed serving as HCCA President and secretary  these past few years and wish to continue to help ensure that the voices of the citizens are heard with the writing of the General Plan and the update of the zoning maps and uses.
