A Republican, Warren serves as a member of the Kansas Senate, representing the 11th District. She has represented the 28th district in the Kansas House of Representatives, based in eastern Johnson County.[1][2]
Warren is an attorney by trade, working at Shook, Hardy, and Bacon from 2006 until 2013, and Property Law Firm from 2013 on. Her political career began in 2018, when she challenged moderate Republican State Representative Joy Koesten in the Republican primary for the 28th district; Warren won the primary election 58-42%, and defeated Democrat Brian Clausen in November.[3]
In 2020, Warren announced a primary challenge to State Senator John Skubal in the Senate's 11th district, an election she won 64-36%. Warren faced Koesten, now a Democrat, in the competitive general election for the seat, defeating her 53-47%.[4]
