I deeply value Brecksville\u2019s charm and all-around family-friendly community. As we embrace new opportunities, let\u2019s make sure we preserve what we love about our town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"font-size:18px\">A little bit about me \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"font-size:18px\">Raised in Brecksville, I left to attend Bowling Green State University. After graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, I worked in the automotive industry for several years and then returned to Brecksville while pursuing an International MBA degree at Baldwin Wallace University. Through friends at St. Basil Church, I met my now-husband, Dan.  We\u2019ve lived here ever since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"font-size:18px\">That was 20 years, 4 kids and 1 dog ago and now I&#8217;m ready &amp; willing to serve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"font-size:18px\">When you vote for me, you vote for my 20+ years of strategic &amp; operational business experience earned primarily at American Greetings.  You vote for the leadership, communication and collaboration skills earned in both professional and volunteer endeavors.  Above all, your vote indicates a shared belief that the thoughtful and deliberate planning of our city has been \u2014 and should continue to be \u2014 crucial to its vibrancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns container is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/BrecksvilleBeth.com\/wp-content\/themes\/hestia\/assets\/img\/feat1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-70\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#3c4858;font-size:18px\">Brecksville&#8217;s Strengths Include:<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Great Amenities:<\/strong> Our community, buildings, parks and services make daily life better.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Charming Design: <\/strong>The city\u2019s allure comes from deliberate planning.  <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Strong Community: <\/strong>I&#8217;m proud to be a BBHHS alum and value our community above all.
