About Me
I'm a 24-year resident of Honey Brook Township and have been committed to serving our community
I was born and raised in a rural agricultural community in NE PA and moved to Honey Brook Township in 2000. I moved here because of the beautiful open space, farm fresh produce, low cost of living and low crime. Honey Brook was also a reasonable commute to work (it used to take me 15 minutes to get to Downingtown) and close to good food and great local parks.
I am the mother of two grown children who were graduates of Twin Valley and two German Shepherd dogs. I am a PhD Toxicologist working for a pharmaceutical company. I chaired a PTO committee to replace the Honey Brook elementary playground nearly 20 years ago and have provided meals to local families in need and local police departments at Christmas for the last 10 years. I have been committed to serving the residents of Honey Brook Township and improving their quality of life.
In 2023, I initiated a petition to place a referendum on the ballot to add two supervisors to the three-member board. Despite the lack of support from the local Republican Committee people, precinct 300 voted 'yes' to add two supervisors by 57.37% (east of 322). Unfortunately, we were unable to gain access to Tel Hai for campaigning and as a result the referendum did not pass by 225 votes! Residents clearly want a change in leadership. My opponent does not represent policies that are any different than previous Supervisors. In fact, all of the current Supervisors signed his petition to have him on the ballot as a candidate.
WHY VOTE FOR ME?
Are you feeling dismissed or disrespected by the current Supervisors when you comment during Township meetings or voice your concerns on social media?
Have you reached out to the Township to ask for help with PennDot or other Township issue and were told we can't help you?
Have you reached out to the State Police for help and were told we can't get out to help you for 2-3 hours?
Are you frustrated with the development in Honey Brook Township and Supervisors who say there is nothing we can do to protect open space and current residents?
If the answer is 'Yes" to any of those questions, it's time for a change. And here's why:
Over the last two years of speaking to Honey Brook Township residents, I have heard many concerns regarding the leadership in our local government. Many residents feel that the Township dismisses their concerns and does not give them the opportunity to express themselves at public meetings. They also feel disrespected on social media. In addition, they are concerned about the increasing development of the township and the safety issues that arise from a growing community.
As a Township Supervisor, I am committed to the following:
-
Ensure responsible development that protects current residents and open space
-
Explore the options for local police coverage and possible funding options within the current budget
-
Ensure the budget is transparent and that expenditures are necessary and responsible
-
-
Restore free speech to township meetings to allow local residents to inform the Township board of community needs
-
Restore Townhall meetings and workshop meetings where residents can get more background on agenda items and ask for items to be added to the agenda
What are the issues on residents minds?
