I ran for office because I saw firsthand how systems were failing the families I served as a 4th grade teacher in Milwaukee Public Schools and as a community member navigating inequities in housing, health, and economic opportunity. I didn’t enter public service for politics,I entered to change outcomes.
My experience spans education, Board service, community advocacy, union organizing, coalition building, leadership development, and training.
Key issues are affordable housing, public safety, economic opportunity, and health disparities. I address these holistically, supporting equitable development to prevent displacement, investing in mental health and violence prevention, expanding job pathways, and advancing health-focused policies. My approach aligns budget and policy to create safer, more stable communities.
I prioritize equitable budgeting, directing resources where need is greatest. I’ve invested in food access, public health, and community-centered development. I partner with trusted organizations to meet residents where they are and ensure access to housing, jobs, and care. Equity means not just opportunity, but outcomes—and I lead with that focus.
I support common-sense gun safety laws like background checks and safe storage, and advocate at all levels for reform. Locally, I invest in prevention/ mental health services, youth programming, and violence interruption. Public safety requires reducing harm, addressing root causes, and building trust between systems and communities.
Milwaukee County can lead through implementation and investment. I support green infrastructure, transit expansion, and energy-efficient housing, especially in impacted communities. We must also create green jobs and partner across jurisdictions. Climate action must advance equity, and my leadership ensures both move forward together.
