February is American Heart Month—when medical professionals ask people to pay attention to their cardiovascular health. This year, the focus is on encouraging women to take charge of their heart health because, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), heart disease is the leading cause of death for women in the U.S. However, everyone should take their heart health seriously by speaking with their doctor if they experience any irregularities in their heart. You should also educate yourself about the risk factors and seek ways to improve your cardiovascular health before it’s too late.

I am excited to formally announce my candidacy for Trustee Place 3 on the Olney ISD School Board.

I am committed to advocating for the best interest of our students, educators, and families of Olney ISD. I believe that education is the foundation of our community and will be dedicated to our district’s vision of ensuring that we prepare every student for a promising future.
