Southwest Florida has been Audrey’s home since 1987, when she moved from Atkinson, New Hampshire. A conservative Christian, she raised her son, built businesses, served local residents and small businesses, and spent decades loving the people who make this area special.
Audrey did not enter this race because politics was the plan. She stepped forward because her own life experience has shown her how difficult and costly it can be for everyday people to navigate systems that should be fair, transparent, and accountable.
Audrey is seeking office with a simple purpose: to represent the people of District 78, advocate for their concerns, and be a strong voice for accountability, fairness, and practical solutions in Tallahassee.
Audrey is running because Southwest Florida needs leaders who understand real people, real struggles, and real consequences.
She is ready to bring a practical, compassionate, and persistent voice to Tallahassee, one shaped by faith, personal experience, local roots, and a commitment to standing up for the people of District 78.
Audrey’s experience has shaped the way she listens, serves, and takes action.
Audrey has built businesses from the ground up in Southwest Florida, including Living Local, a publication that reached more than 100,000 homes by mail, was distributed in 900 locations, supported local businesses, and gave back to local nonprofits.
Through these experiences, Audrey learned what it takes to build something, solve problems, and serve a community with integrity and persistence.
Audrey’s personal experience has shown her how costly and frustrating it can be when the legal system, institutions, and public agencies entrusted with serving and protecting the people fall short.
That experience gave her a deeper purpose: to stand for fairness, accountability, and leadership willing to ask hard questions and take action.
Audrey’s heart is to be an active advocate and a strong voice for the people of District 78, bringing personal experience, compassion, and action to the issues that impact Southwest Florida families every day including:
Helping seniors, families, and young people remain in Southwest Florida, pursue attainable homeownership, build secure futures, and work toward ending homelessness.
Promoting transparency and accountability across government, the legal system, homeowner and condominium associations, and public agencies entrusted with serving and protecting the people.
Supporting strong schools, safe communities, meaningful opportunity, and responsible education choices that put students first while preserving strong public schools.
Protecting life, defending religious freedom, upholding First Amendment liberties, supporting the Second Amendment, and standing for the constitutional freedoms that protect Florida families.
Supporting the local businesses that give Southwest Florida its character, create jobs, and strengthen our communities.
Growth that protects quality of life, respects residents and preserves Lee County’s character.
