As a young girl, I fled a Civil War in my native country, Liberia, and resettled in Aurora. Since then, I have had the opportunity to live what now seems like an impossible American Dream. After graduating from Aurora Central, I earned a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Business Administration from Metro and CU respectively. I am the proud mother of a 24 year old daughter and I’ve worked hard to provide for her and operate a successful small mortgage brokerage business. I’ve dedicated my life to improving my community by helping build economic knowledge, capacity, and attainability for immigrant and low income communities. I serve on various community boards, and find joy in helping people reach their goal of home ownership through affordable housing as a mortgage broker.
Aurora is home to many beautiful parks and natural open spaces. We house two of our state’s most important natural resources, The Cherry Creek Dam and the Aurora Reservoir. Along with supplying water to our residents and businesses, these areas serve as pockets of serenity where we are able to enjoy and connect with nature. Industrial and developmental growth threatens the future of safe drinking water putting our water resources at risk. I will work tirelessly fighting for sustainable growth, protecting our environment and the precious resources we all depend on.
