Hi, I’m Susan. I’m exploring a local run because I’ve spent years working inside campaigns, managing teams, and doing the kind of investigative work that exposes corruption and abuse of power — and I’m tired of watching everyday people pay the price for decisions made behind closed doors.

My background isn’t theoretical. I’ve worked campaigns, managed campaigns, handled research, and dug into misconduct that most people never see. I’ve spoken to whistleblowers, tracked patterns, and documented how institutions operate when they think no one is paying attention.

That work taught me something important:

communities don’t fall apart because people don’t care — they fall apart because nobody with real experience is willing to step forward.

I’m stepping forward now.

For years, I've done this quietly, consistently.

Over the past year, more and more residents have asked me to step forward. They want someone who understands our city's challenges and who listens, someone who isn't afraid to ask hard questions or demand honest answers. This is a chance to listen, learn, and understand what our community needs most. And to do that, I need a small amount of support to cover the basics:

- community outreach materials

- filing and compliance costs

- gas and local travel for neighborhood meetings

- printing, signage, and communication tools

- digital access for residents who prefer online engagement

If you can donate, thank you.

If you can’t, sharing this page or signing up to volunteer is just as meaningful.

Thank you for supporting leadership that’s grounded in real experience. Not slogans. I’m grateful for everyone who chooses to be part of this.

- Susan
