About


Michelle Beckley was elected on November 8, 2018, to represent House District 65 in the Texas House of Representatives & then re-elected in 2020.  During redistricting she was drawn into House District 63.

Her political inspiration came from attending the 2017 Dallas Women's March.

Beckley is as rooted in her district as they come, having attended public school in the Carrollton-Farmers Branch Independent School District before earning a degree in Biomedical Sciences from Texas A&M University in 1992.

Her love for her community brought her back to manage the Kookaburra Bird Shop before purchasing it in 2003. Beckley and her husband, Martin Mikes, live in Carrollton with their two Standard Poodles, Mischief and Mayhem, and cats Max and Mika. Her hobbies include biking and completing Ironman Triathlons.

She vows to protect small businesses, ensure election integrity and advocate for balanced economic and environmental policies in Texas. Beckley's roles have included serving on the International Relations and Economic Development Committee, the Business & Industry Committee, the Agriculture &Livestock Committee, and the Elections Committee while representing House District 65 in Denton County.
