I would love to be involved in local government and have been looking for the perfect entry point. I served in student government and held roles from elementary school through high school and have plans to run for City Council one day.
The animal services committee would blend two passions of mine: animal welfare and community leadership.
I currently support many local, national and international animal rescues and have two rescue dogs of my own.
As a business owner, I possess very strong leadership skills and could bring a lot of valuable experience to the table.
I own and operate a boutique marketing agency and live in District 3.
Thank you for the consideration.
