Expand all | Collapse all

I am a UNLV student pursuing a degree in Urban Affairs with a minor in Public Policy, and I am also a candidate for Assembly District 17. I serve as co-director of an anti-police terror organization and as a non-profit executive focusing on aged-out foster youth. Through my work, I've established impactful workforce and entrepreneur development programs and initiated a pantry to combat food insecurity. Education is a passion of mine, and I'm dedicated to teaching history and creating harm-reduction spaces within the community. With a diverse background in political field leadership roles, I advocate for issues ranging from reproductive rights to climate change, LGBTQ rights, racial justice, and workers' unions. I've also lent my expertise to candidate campaigns, assisting in membership growth and working with elected officials, including serving under the first Black president pro tempore. My commitment lies in fostering positive change and empowering youth and communities towards self advocacy.
  • I believe everyone should have access to the American Dream, the ability to buy your first home get a good paying job and provide your children with a good education,
  • I want to restore hope and democracy and that requires more accountability in government. Once elected I will pass the people lobby act. Requiring employers to allot eight hours a year for employees to be engaged past the ballot box.
  • Our children, seniors, and veterans deserve better!! We need to increase social services for them to ensure they can live a good life. This includes increasing teacher pay and teacher retention, more senior and veteran housing.
I’m very passionate about you, and making sure that they have the tool they need to be successful in their life like access to the American dream, education, increase social services for veterans and youth, & accountability in government.
My first job was a teachers aid at Helen Stewart , I stayed there a little under six months
we shouldn’t be caught up in party politics. We are here to serve the people, and we should do our best to strive for a positive relationship with everyone who is an elected official, regardless of the body they serve on
Government affairs and education
This is of the upmost importance to me which is exactly why I would like to pass a government accounts bill. We need people to hold legislators accountable because the will of the people is not in a lot of the work some legislators do. We cannot afford for more Nevada to slip through the cracks.
