1) Restore fiscal stability to St. Louis County. Reduce the county’s $53 million deficit as of June through responsible budgeting. 2) Expand youth development and civic responsibility programs. Build youth programs that cultivate civic duty. 3) Strengthen direct democratic participation. Create pathways for St. Louis residents to have a direct voice in county decisions.
I’m qualified to serve as county executive because I bring lived experience, independent analysis and a commitment to repairing the social fabric of our community. I understand where systems fail people and how to rebuild them through transparency, accountability and community‑centered solutions.
