The election is over and unfortunately, I was not selected to be the next representative for the 3rd Ward of Shelbyville. Although this may not be the result we wanted, I am so incredibly thankful for all of the people that I had the privilege to interact and work with over the course of the campaign. I learned so much about my community and how many amazing people we have living amongst us. This isn’t the end to our endeavors, this honestly is just the beginning! I’m determined to continue making my community better in any way that I can and to establish appropriate representation for an emerging generation of leaders.
