RIGHT LEADER AT RIGHT TIME FOR THE RIGHT REASON

My roots and my values grew out of my blue collar working family, of which I was raised. My father, Herb, was a printer and my mother, Frances, was a stay at home mother. 

After graduation from high school I attended vocational technical school to be dental assistant and worked in dental office for over 9 years. I began my college career at the age of 24 and completed my MSW (Masters In Social Work at WVU and obtained my certification in special education.

My social work career has been primarily in the field of addictions. I was with WVU over 10 years working with clients, managing departments and teaching. The recent death of my husband, Bill, has moved me into Managing Member of DWG Oil and Gas Acquisitions.

My daughter, Samantha, and son-in-law, Dave, have 2 children, Michael and Lillian, and all live in Morgantown. Samantha and Dave both graduated from WVU. My son Ben and his wife Keisha also live in Morgantown.

I am running for House of delegates because I believe in core West Virginia values. Focus on family, independence, individual rights and love of these mountains.
