Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
As a person who is aging I recognize the necessity of recognizing how this process effects
people physically and mentally. I have worked as a geriatric social worker and am a long time
believer in the connection of maintaining physical and mental activities as well as connection to
the larger community to help people age with integrity and dignity. Recently retiring as a high
school teacher, I clearly see the importance of maintaining ties to a larger community to lessen
the isolation created with retirement. I would like the opportunity to bring my ideas to a larger
group in order to be more inclusive of the aging population.

Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
I am passionate about preserving the unique charm of Hillsborough, and building a livable,
economically strong community while protecting our natural resources for the enjoyment of
future generations. I am a results- driven professional with a long history of community
involvement, stemming from my active participation in my childrens education. I have deep
roots in Hillsborough, my ancestors are buried in the cemetary of my church. I am a successful
and established licensed Realtor in Hillsborough, with 23 years of experience both here and in
California. I have had the pleasure of selling Orange County, NC to the hundreds of families who
I have worked with over the last 12 years when they are choosing Hillsborough as a place to call
home. I own a farm in Eastern Orange County, where we have raised our children in
Hillsborough schools. We also own a rental property on Union St. in the Historic District. Our
eldest daughter and grand daughter live in Hillsborough as well. It is important to me that
Orange County growth is managed in a responsible way.
