Zionsville

Summary

Having been raised in Zionsville, I have a passion for our community. I grew up and worked on a farm in the country. I spent 10 years showing cattle and participating in other events in the 4-H program. I lived and volunteered in Ohio for eight years prior to moving back to my hometown in 2021. I enjoyed volunteering at the Farmers Market in 2024, and I would love nothing more than to become more involved locally once again.
