My family and I have lived in Rochdale Village for over 26 years. As a single mother, I understand that many shareholders will be devastated by the huge carrying charge increase. I’m running as a candidate for the Board of Directors to ensure affordability, transparency, fairness, and accountability.
As a Benefit Administrator Liaison, I advocate for fairness, resolve concerns, and ensure members receive the resources and the benefits they work for and deserve. As a Union Shop Steward, I negotiate contracts, resolve disputes, and protect employees’ rights.
Previously, I worked as a Revenue Agent for the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) which gave me a deep understanding of financial accountability, and the importance of fiscal responsibility. These experiences have taught me how to navigate complex issues, listen to diverse perspectives, and find solutions that serve the greater good.
As a community advocate in this community, I’ve been writing letters to our elected officials, attending various community meetings, getting cooperators to sign petitions, and mobilizing cooperators on social media. I’m a leader and I love my community. And I will always be involved in making a difference.
As a Board Member, I will bring the same dedication and motivation ensuring that decisions are made with integrity, funds are managed wisely, and that every shareholder’s voice is heard. Rochdale Village is more than where I live- it is my home, my community, and responsibility. I am ready to work for you. As a devoted Rochdale Village Shareholder, I am committed to ensuring our co-op remains thriving, safe, and a well-managed place to live.
