My top priority as a neighbor and as a leader is always focused on connecting people to resources. Whether it's to find a job, free kids activities, or even just the best local barber shop - I’ve always been the person people call when they need something, and I take pride in being that bridge. This isn’t just what I do—it’s who I am.
My top 3 issues are led by the concerns of my district: (1) Public Safety, (2) Affordable Housing, and (3) Economic Development.
