I'm an Educator, Mom, and Community Advocate.
Our OM village exemplifies the best of Columbia. I know this from personal experience as an OMHS teacher, former OMMS PTSA president, and co-founder of Oakland Mills Online (OMO). As the wife of an OMHS grad, and mother of three OMHS students, I am well aware of all the rewarding opportunities we have here. My teenagers continue to thrive because of our paths, ice rink, summer swim team, and various employment options. I am running for the CA Board of Directors to advocate for everyone in our village to ensure Columbia is the most vibrant, inclusive place to live in America. If elected, I will be transparent in my positions, ethical in my actions, and professional in my duties. I want everyone in our village to feel welcome in CA spaces and to achieve this, we must provide more outreach- both in communication and financial support. CA is for everyone!
Endorsement from Howard County Council Member, Opel Jones (D2)
”Amy Brooks is the perfect person for the CA Board of Directors because she is connected with her neighbors, her students, and their families in Oakland Mills AND because she excels at collaborating with others. I know she'll work well with all the other board members and CA staff. Amy will encourage partnerships and help CA be even more inclusive and welcoming."
