|My grandfathers passed along their ingenuity, entrepreneurial inclinations and boundless commitment to uplifting our local communities. These pillars, along with my parents, are why I have always pursued a career path that positively impacts the lives of Houstonians. Your vote would give me the continued honor to serve our communities.
My political life began in the early 1990's on a drive through our neighborhood when my mother explained the role that government plays in our daily lives. This began my search to find solutions for what ailed our communities.
I've worked across decades to represent and hold space for communities seeking change, and have had the privilege of working with elected and appointed officials that worked tirelessly to create transformative change.
Service to our city is embedded in my DNA, and it is why I come before you today asking for your vote of confidence. I intend to bring the energy and optimism that has propelled me forward throughout my journey to realizing the Houston that's just over horizon. A city that is able to harness its raw talent, heart and ambition to create a global model of thoughtful progress and light a path forward as one of the most diverse collections of communities in America.- At-Large City Council Members are uniquely positioned to facilitate significant policy shifts that can improve all of our communities.
- I'm running because we need better government, empowered communities, and stronger small businesses.
- I will work to ensure every person in this city, no matter their circumstances, has a fair chance at success.
A livable wage for Houston families is critical to our growth. As the fourth largest City, it is our duty to ensure that the people responsible our municipality's daily functions are fairly compensated and are not charged with balancing multiple sources of employment to make ends meet.
