Afro-American Sheriff’s Deputy League President, J. M. "Smokie" Phillips, Jr. had this to say about Diane’s endorsement, "We believe that Diane certainly possesses the qualities to serve as a Harris County Board of Education Trustee, qualities such as experience in eduational leadership, expert knowledge, and her passion to public service. No doubt she will be an added value to the Harris County Board of Education."
"I am honored and proud to receive the endorsement of such an outstanding Harris County organization that works so hard to support our law enforcement community," said Dr. Trautman. "I want to thank the Afro-American Sheriff’s Deputy League for honoring me with their endorsement, and I will work hard to protect the vital HCDE services that support education readiness and keep our children in school. I will not allow children’s services to be used as a political football as they have in the past."

She worked in four Harris County school districts during this time, and before going into the education field, she worked 10 years in the Houston banking industry.
