"I want to bring my 13 years of experience in state government to the city of Bryant,” said Kizer, in a written announcement. “Transparency and accountability in government are my top priorities and I believe that begins at the local level."

"Bryant is one of the fastest growing cities in the state, and I want to bring my many years of experience in politics, business and finance to serve the city of Bryant efficiently and responsibly," Kizer said.

She has a bachelor's of science degree from the University of Phoenix and is married to Mark Kizer. They have two children Aaron, 18, and Ashlin, 11, and their family attends Brand New Church in Bryant.

"My ultimate goal is to give back to the community where I grew up by offering myself for public service," Kizer said. "I’m running for your family and mine."
