Hi! I'm Mary Ann

I am running to represent Ballwin in the Missouri Legislature (House District 100), because we deserve to have a representative who truly represents us – voting for our interests and elevating our voices, not ignoring them.

I’m from here, and I work at WashU. I was an ’80s kid, a Rockwood School District kid – Ellisville Elementary, Crestview, and then Lafayette. I lived overseas for a couple of decades in my 20s and 30s, working first as a Department of Defense contractor in Germany and then for the United Nations in Lebanon and Thailand. My two daughters were both born overseas. 

Even from the other side of the world, I could tell that life back home was changing. Gun violence got a whole lot worse, and tuition, childcare, and healthcare costs skyrocketed while wages stayed flat. Meanwhile, local politicians who should have been finding solutions just made everything worse. 

I believe we can fix what has been broken, and it starts with electing people like me who believe in democracy and believe that the government must respect the voice of the people.
