Attorney
I'm most passionate about economic justice, access to the courts and neighborhood investment. As a personal injury attorney, I see every day what happens when working people get hurt and can't afford to fight back against powerful insurance companies. That experience drives my belief that the legal system should work for everyone, not just those who can afford it.
My top legislative priority is securing stable state funding for St. Louis' public safety infrastructure. Right now, our 911 dispatch center is understaffed and underfunded, and in 2024, in addition to the $10 million cut from our 911 system, $13 million for a new public safety center was cut. When someone calls 911 in St. Louis, they deserve an immediate response.

I am passionate about politics and social and economic justice. As a child I learned the value of solidarity with the marginalized, joined UFCW 655 as a teen and was active with St. Louis Area Jobs with Justice. Workers’ rights and economic justice are my main areas of knowledge and focus, but racial justice, reproductive rights and LGBTQ rights are just as important.
My priority is protecting and defending Missouri's initiative petition process. I know firsthand how difficult initiative petition campaigns are, and I hope to bring that knowledge to the Missouri General Assembly. I maintain close ties with grassroots groups and leaders throughout our state and will work with these groups to protect and secure the petition process.
