Collapse all
|Experience in law and immigration.
Serving as Americorps for two consecutive years.
Owner of three businesses, two internationally recognized.
Graduated from the University of Virginia through the School of Sorensen in political leadership.
Certified by Harvard university.
Winner of many recognitions like 40 under 40 Prospanica for my work with vulnerable women and children.
And so I did, because two years later this man got convicted of a crime.
I would like to show for the first time that people stick and vote for independent thinkers. We are independent voters and make history for the first time in our commonwealth of Virginia. Many more brave people like me, will start running without parties but for their constituents directly without the middle man.
I couldn't believe that many
foriegn ethnicitys we wete becoming victims of a Hate Crime for no reason. Just because we were demonized by some extremists of the Islam, this created and still creates much chaos pain and terror for years to come.
I had a son to feed and God was blessing me with a job.
I think I broke my knee!!!
The ambulance was never called I was picked up
I also like to get courage when in campaigns trough the encouragement of the writing of Dr.Martin Luther King.
Then I migrated here and I had to learn a different language and a different system. Respect the laws and judicial system ,therefore I made mistakes and I did struggle.
I paid my education with lots of efforts and it was an struggle.
I have realized medicine was very expensive here whereas other parts of the world and sometimes I got sick and stayed home afraid to go to the doctor unable to afford the bill.
I got in a car accident I was in coma and in a wheelchair for months depressed and with narcotics for the pain for months.
I finally found my son almost getting killed by an off duty FBI agent for no reason .
Also there is a sickening party stagnation which doesn't let anyone go anywhere.
Some legislators have experience in receiving the big checks and pushing legislation on favor of those with big money ,meanwhile the people has to suffer the consequences ignoring completely what's going on, all in a sudden they got hammered by toll roads or traffic tickets and don't even know where to go and complain.
My story resonates and resembles with everyone,
Is the story of becoming free .
If you can't drive in traffic with peace of mind because you are afraid of being pulled over and be racial profiled?
Are you truly free.
If your children can't access to higher education because many universities are becoming unbelievably expensive , are you truly free?
When you get sick and feel that you should call for a naturist friend for some herbs and placebos so you avoid paying a doctor or expensive medication
Are you truly free?
When you send to your children to an school scared if he or she will come back alive .
Are you truly free?
We are the number one country in the world for incarceration and gun violence, but we used to be the number one country in the world for prosperity.
Living in fear, unhealthy or unhappy is not quality of life.
Let us wake up, I can change it.
