Provo City Council – Citywide
About Me
I have spent most of my life in Provo. I attended Edgemont Elementary, Farrer Middle School, and Timpview High School. I am also a graduate of BYU’s Marriott School of Business.
After college, I spent several years outside of Utah. I worked for Gap Corporate in the Bay Area, and then opportunities took me to Seattle, where I worked in advertising. In Washington State, I happily started a little family. But life changed and suddenly I was a single mother, with two little ones, and so I moved back to Provo, to be near family and the place I loved.
Back in Provo, I got a job at a software company, while studying for the GMAT and earned a scholarship to attend BYU for my Master’s. I also met my husband John “Dewey” MacKay, and for the last ten years we have been happily raising our four children in South Provo, and more recently, back to Edgemont. I currently work as Director of Marketing for a dental group based in Arizona and Utah.
Community Involvement
I am deeply passionate about volunteer work and have volunteered in various capacities throughout my life – including the rape crisis line, rape counseling, hospice, church service, and the PTA/PTO.
Vision for Provo
Over the past decade, I have become aware of the important role of local government, and I feel that now I can serve the wider community of Provo.
We live in one of the best cities in the country for quality of life, family, and regional economy. I want to work with the community to maintain all those wonderful qualities and build on our successes as Provo advances rapidly into the future.
