I worked hard, got a biomedial engineering degree at Texas A&M and a Kellog Northwestern MBA, and worked at giants like General Electric, McKesson and IBM Watson where I lead hundred million dolloar portfolios in healthcare tech and AI. I became an expert in leading large teams, growth and turn-arounds.
I am running for Mayor of Atlanta because I don't see the kind of hope I want to see in the eyes of my three daughters, their peers and other parents my age.
With Federal Dollars being cut and AI job loss on the horizon it is imperative that we start to do things differents. We must remove the long-standing corruption in our city leadership so that we can protect our citizens and then attract the kind of wealth that will make Atlanta the Number 1 city in the United States.
This is especially true for Atlanta, which has the largest welath-gap of any large city in the country. Its time to do things differently because Atlanta deserves more.
Vote for Love, because anything is possible with Love.- My 6-point Atlanta Rises plan is built to address issues like strenghtening our economcy, protecting people, restoring integrity from corruption, transportation, healthcare, and growing our collective unity.
Part of that strategy is a unique marketing position and mission for the city: One Love on One Earth for One Humanity.
We will generate economic growth thru collaboration in a One Love consortium focused on citizens as a sales front-door to collaborate with small businesses, large corporations and the entertainment industry.
With a focus on faith, finance, green tech and humanitarian issues, we will host One Love, One Earth and One Humanity conferences to elevate our thought leadership and research/grant investment. - To shift our city futher, I have an AI and tech in every part of city and social services. To facillitate this, I have named a One Humanity Executive, Dr Stacee Lang, who will help consolidate and focus our non-profit efforts across the city. With joint-ventures in each area, I intend to drive out-come focused non-profit efforts that can be developed here and sold to other cities. This strategy is grounded in a committment to developing a Responsible Capitalism. When we apply the efficiencies of business to social services, we can know that our systems help people learn, recover, and grow so that they can become stronger contributors to the economy. This straegy will attract investmetn and ultiamtely ongoign revevnues for our city.
- Finally, we are in a time that requires restoration. I have developed a One Love Reconciliation plan to bring about healing of our division. It is time for Atlanta to acknowledge our past and apologize for it and then set new goals ahead for our mission in One Love on One Earth for One Humanity. Besides a proclomation and monument, I will pull a comission together to make suggestions in areas from incarceration, education, media and business practices, but most importantly we will invest in a $10M pilot for a private/public wealth-sharing program built on the republican valor of merit to grow entreprenuers and skilled laborers of those that have been economically left behind by all the wrongs we have committed to oneanother.
To do this, we must first come to love and lead outselves by dismantling lies about ourselves that we learned from our parents, from the village and ourselves the sparate us from believing and pursing our heighest self. This pursuit is the pursuit of God, the One Love that is the common rainbow chord of every faith and even science.
