Seventeen years ago, my husband and I chose Penn Wynne as our home, drawn to its strong sense of community and diversity of the neighborhood. Living across from Penn Wynne Park, our daughters grew up seeing it as an extension of our home—just as I have come to see our entire community.
My engagement began in 2012 when I attended my first meeting of the Penn Wynne Civic Association. I soon joined its board and later became its president. I have spent the past 12 years improving our community and building relationships: leading the pilot program for sidewalk installations, improving traffic and pedestrian safety, protecting and maintaining open space including the field at Penn Wynne Elementary School, and establishing the Friends of Penn Wynne Park group.
Through these experiences, I’ve gained a deep understanding of the time, dedication, and collaboration needed to create positive change. I value the partnership between neighbors and their commissioner. I am ready for the next step and looking forward to becoming your commissioner.
