Monica is running for county council because she believes local government works best when it's transparent, accountable and grounded in community input. 

For more than a decade she has worked behind the scenes to make our neighborhoods safer and our emergency services faster. She started her career in public safety with St. Charles City Police Dept. and then St. Charles Emergency Communications. Her role was simple but critical: make sure the right information gets to the right people at the right time. 

Her campaign is about bringing people together and remembering that the person across from you isn't your enemy -- they're your neighbor.

She will prioritize data-driven decision making and open dialogue with residents & fellow board members. Monica believes the solutions come from the people who live and work here every day. She will listen first, focus on fact, and work collaboratively.
