Dr. Heavenly Kimes is running for office. The Married to Medicine dentist is passionate about so many things, including politics, as she is now running to be elected as a Georgia State Representative in District 93 under the Democratic ticket.
Heavenly declared her candidacy to People and explained her motives for running. “I’m not a career politician,” she said in a statement. “I’m a mom, a doctor, a business owner — and I’m not afraid to stand up for what I believe in. I’m running to serve and ready to work.”
The mom of three told People that she was inspired by her patients to go into politics. “I’ve spent my life helping people build confidence, start businesses, and take control of their future,” she said. “Now I’m bringing that same passion to the State Capitol. District 93 deserves someone who’s not just talking, but doing.”
“Our people deserve real representation, someone who understands both the struggles and the solutions,” she added.
