Hi, I’m Pat!

I’m running for Clay County Commission.

Speak up for the Struggling

Because of my work with Salvation Army, I see the struggles that many of our families face that are often hidden to the wider community—I want to make sure their interests are at the table when we're talking about development and growth.

Rural Representation

I want to be a voice for County residents like myself who live outside of city limits.

Why I’m Running

Consensus Building

In this increasingly polarized world, I know I can be an effective advocate for moderation, cooperation, and consensus building. So many of us want the same things for our county and there's no reason to let outside division get in the way.
