About Kerri
I have spent my life serving others, whether in uniform, in my community, or now as an elected official fighting for Delaware families every day.
As a veteran of the United States Air Force who served during the Iraq War, I learned early that leadership is about service, accountability, and showing up when people need you most. After my military service, I continued working in communities across Delaware as an organizer and advocate because I have always believed government should work for everyday people, not just the powerful and well connected.
When the people of the 32nd District elected me to the Delaware House of Representatives in 2022, I made a commitment to lead with urgency, integrity, and purpose. In just a short amount of time, I have worked to deliver meaningful progress for Delaware families while earning the trust of my colleagues to serve as Majority Leader in the Delaware House of Representatives.
People often forget how recently I was first elected because I have never approached this work as someone waiting for permission to lead. I believe the people of Delaware expect leaders who listen, act decisively, and stay focused on delivering real results. That is exactly how I have approached public service from day one.
I have fought to expand economic opportunity, strengthen public education, protect reproductive freedom, support veterans, improve public safety, and ensure working families have a voice in the decisions that affect their lives. Whether advocating for affordable housing, healthcare access, criminal justice reform, or investments in local communities, my focus has always been on helping people and moving Delaware forward.
As a mother who raised my family in Delaware, I understand the challenges families face because I have lived them myself. Those experiences shape every decision I make and keep me grounded in the values that brought me to public service in the first place.
At a time when many people feel disconnected from politics and frustrated with government, I believe leadership means being accessible, responsive, and willing to do the hard work necessary to improve people’s lives.
I remain committed to building a Delaware where every person has the opportunity to succeed, every family can thrive, and every community knows they have someone fighting for them.
Let's keep going!
