“Healthy communities start with a people-centered approach to government . The skills I’ve developed and refined over the course of my nursing career- critical thinking, active listening, collaboration & compassion- have proven essential in my work in state government–a solid foundation for effective, impactful public service. 

​

​My policy work as the three-term Chair of the Joint Standing Committee on Health and Human Services has prioritized access to quality healthcare for all Mainers, the well-being and security of older and disabled residents, the safety and stability of Maine children and their families, addressing food & housing insecurity & building and strengthening our healthcare workforce and delivery system.  

​

As a proud member of the House Democratic caucus, I have delivered on my promise for property tax relief, increased education funding, and environmental protection.  

 

My priorities remain squarely on lifting up and improving the lives of the people I represent.

 

I have worked hard to ensure the work of state government is focused on the needs of the people through solution-focused policies grounded in the values of compassion, well-being and justice. That’s how good government happens”.
