I recently had the opportunity to speak to the St. Charles County Youth Counci that is led by one of our aldermen, Judy Bateman. If not for mentioning my passion for helping young people to my City Administrator, Judy and I may never have crossed paths and that amazing experience may never have happened.
Public service is the most rewarding thing I have ever done, and it is because of all of the wonderful people in our organization. From Mayor Len Pagano to the Board of Aldermen and all the way through the org-chart there are so many people ready to help lift each other up and support our mission and values. I am very blessed to be a part of the city of St. Peters.
What are your interests outside local government? My passion is to help young people prepare for adulthood. Through leadership and character-based principles along with all my life’s experiences, I hope to be a resource for young people to learn from and grow into the respectful and humble adults of high character this world needs.
Where would you most like to travel and why?
Pearl Harbor is at the top of my list!
I have a lot of pride and respect for our service men and women. When I think of some of the most impactful moments and places that our military has paid so much for our freedoms, I think of Pearl Harbor. It would be an honor and a blessing to be able to travel there someday with my two children so that we could pay our respects to all of the fallen heroes there.
