About Me

My name is Karrenthya Simmons, and I am running for ANC 3/4G SMD 05. I am originally from Detroit, MI and have lived in the District of Columbia since 2010. During my time in DC, I have lived in Wards 1,3,4 and 5. I have a son who is a part of the DCPS community.

I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in accounting with a specialization in information technology from Michigan State University and a Master of Business Administration with a focus in strategic management from Loyola University Maryland. I work full time in audit, risk, and compliance for a financial regulator within the U.S. government. I run a small business tax preparation service in a part-time capacity. I’m dedicated to public service and am currently serving as the co-chair for 3/4G ANC’s Racial and Social Equity (RASE) committee, co-treasurer for Lafayette’s School Home and School Association (HSA), and an active member with the Junior League of Washington, and Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Incorporated.

I enjoy traveling, reading, fitness, and spending time with my son along with my family and friends.
