Whether it was working her way through school at the University of Kentucky, balancing a busy family life, growing a business, or being active in various volunteer boards and organizations in her community, Erika has consistently demonstrated a willingness to listen and be reasonable while standing up for what she knows is right.

As State Representative, Erika wants to follow in the footsteps of Derrick Graham and Jullian Carrol and fight for state workers to retirees.

For too long, legislators have used state workers as punching bags. It's past time they get respect they have earned.
