"There is a lot in my life for which I am thankful. Unfortunately, millions of my peers are not as privileged due to the system of inequality that we live in. Unable to passively witness this reality persist, I have devoted my life to advocating for a higher living wage, the creation of more quality schools, and safer communities. The latter through specifically supporting stronger gun control laws, as a top priority.
Many millennials are currently unemployed or finding it difficult to begin a career. Their voices are too often not heard by policy makers. They do not have access to basic necessities, such as food, clean water, and shelter. Given my years of experience in all levels of government, I know what it takes to navigate governmental bureaucracy, find solutions, and ultimately see ideas through to fruition."
