Join The Movement For a Better Alexandria
Committed to Alexandria
I am a single mother of two amazing teenagers. My son is a junior at Alexandria City High School, my daughter is a former Titan that now has a career, taking her across the country to advocate for the constitutional rights of students on our college campuses.
As one of three daughters to a U.S. Air Force pilot and a German-Estonian mother, I grew up bilingually and spent most of my life living and traveling abroad. I returned to the U.S. in 1999, landing in Arlington. My family moved to Del Ray about ten years ago.
After having graduated from the University of Maryland, European Campus in Germany, I completed an apprenticeship and received a German Paralegal Degree in International Intellectual Property. I then worked as a paralegal in both Germany and the United States, both in-house for world-wide corporations as well as various law firms. Presently, I work at a small law firm in Old Town.
While living in Alexandria, I have been an educator in our Alexandria City Public Schools system and have worked various restaurants in Del Ray.
I have also enjoyed the many volunteer opportunities Alexandria City and our school system have offered, whether that be after school tutoring, working events on The Avenue, or fitting children with Halloween costumes.
