Ex-TV news journalists heading to November ballots

I’ve been blessed to build a meaningful career—first as a reporter, anchor, and producer, and then as the youngest Director of Public Affairs in the largest District Attorney’s office in Georgia: Fulton County.

My work has always centered on one thing—telling the truth and fighting for what’s right.

As a journalist, I held the powerful accountable.
As a communications strategist, I’ve helped fight for justice in some of the most high-profile cases in the country.
And now, I’m running for office—not in the community I was raised in, but in the one where I’m raising my family.

Thank you to 11 Alive and Doug Richards for helping tell this part of my journey.

This campaign isn’t about a title—it’s about service. It’s about building a future grounded in values, truth, and the kind of leadership our communities deserve.

Let’s build it together.
