I’ve spent my entire career fighting for equal justice under the law for every North Carolinian. I’ve been proud to serve on the North Carolina Supreme Court since Governor Cooper appointed me in 2023, and I hope to earn your vote for a full term on the bench.
I grew up in the mountains of West Virginia, in a family with a proud tradition of military service. I put myself through college, graduate school and law school at the University of Florida. In law school, I worked with hundreds of people in my community who had lost their right to vote as a result of interaction with the criminal justice system. They pulled their lives back together, and together we started the process of getting their rights back. It was in Florida that I found my passion for serving my community and making sure that every person has the right to vote.

I’ve spent my entire career fighting to protect the rights of every North Carolinian, and I won’t back down now.
North Carolinians elected me to keep my seat on the North Carolina Supreme Court in November 2024, a win that was affirmed by two independent recounts. After winning election to a full term on the North Carolina Supreme Court, my victory is being challenged in court. My opponent has filed a lawsuit seeking to throw out more than 65,000 lawfully cast ballots, including the votes of both of my parents as well as deployed military serving our country. As a proud daughter of a 30-year military veteran, I won’t stop fighting to ensure that every eligible voter - including active duty military and veterans - can make their voices heard.
