My Priorities

I will work to develop mentorship programs in partnership with local agencies and faith-based organizations. These programs will help steer young people away from crime and toward positive futures through exposure to skilled trades, college pathways, entrepreneurship, and other career-building opportunities.

I will advocate for schools to be adequately funded so students have access to strong teachers, safe and well-maintained buildings, needed repairs or new facilities, and quality after-school programs. Every student should have the resources and support necessary to succeed.

I will focus on reducing crime by partnering with JSO to build trust and strengthen relationships within our community. I also want to support neighborhood watch programs that help keep our neighborhoods safe, discourage criminal activity, and restore a strong sense of pride among residents.

I will work to improve community infrastructure so we can attract more businesses and create more local jobs. I will also encourage businesses to maintain clean, welcoming surroundings that reflect pride in the community and contribute to a stronger local economy.
