26-year old Victoria Napolitano is my hero.  She's displaying a ton of girl power, recently sworn in as the youngest mayor in Moorestown's history, and making her one of our nation's youngest leaders.

The Drexel grad, who served on Moorestown's city council for the past two years, is eager to lead her people, telling 6abc.com, "A lot of people in their 20s are focused on other things, but it seemed like a natural fit for me; it's really an honor. I love this town," Napolitano said. "My number one priority in the first couple of months of my term will be bringing a budget to the rest of council and passing a budget that does not increase taxes this year."

Napolitano is getting attention not only from her constituents, but several power players in the Republican party as she begins her political career.

The new young mayor hopes her story will inspire others, saying "To have more women in politics especially young women is really important to me and I hope I can be a role model."
