Hello!

I know, I know...I'm not an original Dotte. But maybe that's a good thing? I hope to bring a fresh perspective to the county, having lived in the region for the past decade. I'm not sure I've ever felt so welcome in a community as I have here, and I love this little big town. 

​

Some of you may know me from working in the UG - through planning and zoning, business license, building permitting, or with small business and  developer projects. Most of you don't know anything about me beyond that. I hope this page isn't just a resume, but lets you understand more about myself, my values, and how my experiences and moral compass have shaped my decision to pursue the office of Commissioner At-Large for District 2. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Education

I grew up in a "house divided" between K-State and KU. I did attend K-State, but ultimately graduated elsewhere as my interests shifted

At Talking Tree Urban Farm, attempting to run a mini-excavator with Ashly, the farm's owner. Emphasize on  attempt.

I grew up heavily influenced by my Irish Catholic Family. Please note the prime fashion choices of the early 90s

Not my tattoo....yet. I do love Wes Craven films and thrillers, especially the original Scream.

My Dream: A suburban or urban farmstead where I can live out my hobbies and live sustainability, off-grid. Work in Progress!

Yes, I processed my own!
