On the Issues
What is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
In Ward 7, there is an urgent need for a more focused community investment in the lives of our youths. Schools, parents and the broader community need to work collaboratively and creatively to ensure that our schools are physically, mentally and emotionally safe spaces for children. Revitalizing a community value system rooted in self-awareness, work ethic and collective accountability empowers our youth and provides them with the tools and the desire to critically engage their environment. True reform in education must begin with this.
Why should voters elect you?
My education and professional experiences qualify me for this position, but my vision, commitment and passion are what make me the best candidate.
