I previously worked in <br />Raleigh as a land use attorney and have experience with preparing and presenting cases before <br />the Raleigh BOA, the Raleigh City Council, and the Wake County BOA, as well as ample <br />experience reading and interpreting the Raleigh and Durham city ordinances and <br />comprehensive plans. In addition to my legal degree, I have a masters in city and regional <br />planning from UNC. <br />Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br />When I was in law school at UNC, I acquired an interest in land use, planning, and zoning. I <br />supplemented my law degree with a masters in city and regional planning, also from UNC. I <br />moved from Durham to the Hillsborough area of Orange County in December 2016. From my <br />education and work experience in land use, I understand the importance of the BOA decisions <br />and the effect they can have on the community. It is my desire to use my education and work <br />experience to help make informed, positive choices for my home community. <br />Conflict of Interest: <br />12
