“This is such a vibrant time to live in Arvada. With the Gold Line coming in, Old Town Arvada thriving, and more and more people discovering our hidden jewel, I want to have a hand in shaping our city’s future.”

“I want my one year old son to have a special place to think of as home. I grew up in a small town with a beautiful statue and a fountain where we loved to sit. I want my son to appreciate and experience art in public places like I did. I see community service and involvement as a privilege.”
