- Community-led Development: Economic development should be community centered and city decisions must recognize the voices of the most affected groups, including historically marginalized communities and neighbors adjacent to a development. I serve as co-chair of the West Raleigh CAC (Community Advocacy Council), bringing attention to proposed zonings, land use changes, and neighbor needs in District D.
- Affordable Housing: As the city grows, we can’t leave people behind. I support policies like property tax relief for low income homeowners and community benefit agreements for new developments that require affordable housing.
- Environmental Stewardship: We need to take the long view to care for our environment. We all benefit from clean air and water, parks for recreation, and beautiful places to take a pause. I will protect our waterways and greenspaces. I advocate for investments in our natural amenities and improvements to transit infrastructure to reduce fossil fuel dependence. I am a strong voice for climate adaptation.
