While working with the United Way of Linn County as a Loaned Executive and member of the Funds Distribution Committee I was able to work closely with local agencies and members of the community. While facilitating the raising funds in Linn County for this organization, I have had a unique opportunity to see first hand the challenges that face our residents on a daily basis. I will bring this same dedication and caring to the office of Linn County Commissioner.
