Born in Asheville, North Carolina, Clark graduated from Brevard High School and earned both a bachelor’s degree (2007) and a graduate degree (2012) from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill ¹.

Clark entered the state legislature in August 2024 when Guilford County Democratic leaders appointed her to fill the seat vacated by Ashton Clemmons, and Governor Cooper officially appointed her to complete the term ¹⁰¹². In the 2024 election she won a full term with 68.1% of the vote (31,986 votes) over Republican Janice Davis ¹. During the 2025‑2026 session she served as House Democratic Freshman Co‑Chair and recorded a 96% attendance rate, casting 604 votes—69% in line with the GOP‑controlled House and 31% against—mirroring the average voting pattern of NC House Democrats ¹²¹⁴.

She supported Governor Stein’s vetoes of legislation she described as harmful, such as the “Freedom to Carry NC” bill (SB 50) and the criminal illegal alien enforcement act (HB 318) ¹⁴.

Clark describes herself as a mother, wife, businesswoman, and advocate who entered politics out of frustration with “MAGA extremism” and a desire to represent the moderate majority in a politically purple state ¹²¹⁴.
