I’m running because HD42 deserves leadership that shows up — consistently, respectfully, and with purpose. Too often, elected officials disappear between elections. The people of Aurora deserve better. I’m running for HD42 because: I have the time to do the job right I have the experience to address real issues facing working families I have the commitment to be an accessible, accountable representative I have the values to serve with integrity, transparency, and action As a mother of three, I understand the daily challenges families face. As a business owner, I understand the realities of affordability and economic pressure. As a community leader, I know that public office is a responsibility — not a reward. I am running to bring leadership you can trust to the heart of Aurora.

Sarah’s commitment includes: Regular community meetings Transparent communication Being present in the district year-round Making sure every constituent can access their representative with ease Leadership only matters when it shows up.
