Reason for Seeking Public Office:

Frustrated by the failures of politicians and career party insiders, Katie is running to serve our community as a powerful voice for smaller government, road improvements, job creation and education reform.

With nearly two decades of experience and success in negotiations and executive management, Katie has the knowledge to make our government more efficient and effective. Summerville deserves more than just filling a seat in Columbia. We deserve and need a State Representative who will shake things up, represent our values, and lead on the issues that matter to us.
