(1) List your judicial experience (courts and years):<\/strong><\/p>\n

Magistrate at the Akron Municipal Court (2019).  Prior to this I have 12 years of experience representing individuals in municipal, common pleas, and federal courts in Northeast Ohio.<\/p>\n\n\n

(2) What about your non-judicial legal experience qualifies you to be a judge?<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My diverse non-judicial\nlegal experience qualifies me to be judge because it enables me to create\ninnovative solutions to common problems our court faces. For example, our\ncommunity is suffering from a drug and opioid epidemic. The Stow Municipal Court\nis the only court in Summit County that does not have a specialized docket to\ntreat this epidemic. I have the experience to start an effective drug court. I have\nspent 12 years working with, and for, nonprofits in our community as well as\nlitigating cases in Municipal Courts all over Northeast Ohio. Working as a Senior\nAttorney at Catholic Charities as well as a private practitioner at McGinty, Hilow,\n& Spellacy Co LPA taught me that in order to make a real-world impact, itis\nimportant not to duplicate services and processes, but instead to reach across boundaries\nand fully utilize those effective and high-quality tools and partners that\nalready exist in our own neighborhoods. This includes tapping into our resources\n\u2014 and especially our local nonprofits \u2014 that offer rehabilitative programs to\naid in drug addiction recovery. By connecting to the community we can start\nprograms, like the drug court, at no extra expense to the taxpayers.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(3) Why are you running for\nthis particular court seat?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am running for Judge of\nthe Stow Municipal Court because I care about our community and the safety of\nthe community. I believe every person deserves a fair and equitable experience\nin court, and if elected as your judge, I will make sure that happens. I have\nthe skills and even-handed temperament required to apply the law impartially\nand consistently to each sentence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have spent most of my\ncareer thus far in municipal courts and have learned that it is often the\nindividual\u2019s initial appearance before a municipal court judge which can lead\nhim or her to become a repeat offender. What happens in that courtroom is\ncritical, and we need the right person making decisions that will ultimately\nimpact an entire community. I am currently a magistrate in Akron Municipal\nCourt, where I make decisions every single day that will impact individuals,\nfamilies and neighborhoods. Prior to this, I have been an attorney for 12 years\nwhere I served as a Senior Attorney at Catholic Charities and a general practitioner\nfor McGinty Hilow & Spellacy Co LPA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a wife and mother of three children, I care about\ncreating a better, safer community for our future. And as a first-generation\nAmerican, I know the value of hard work from watching my family and extended\nfamily\u2019s commonsense approach to creating and running businesses. My diverse\nexperiences and willingness to work with others to implement creative solutions\nfor our everyday challenges make me the right choice for Stow Municipal Court\nJudge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
