| Collapse all
- The time has come for the community to come into real power. We have been waiting a long time for leadership that is willing to challenge the status quo and stand up to systems that make it hard for us to succeed. I have been on the front lines as one of South Carolina’s most ambitious data analysts and community activists working to confront complacent leaders, toxic industries, and oppressive policies that make it difficult for families to unite and have stable housing for both mother and father.
- I have the working knowledge to help us build housing, open small businesses, create jobs, fund community programs that support our veterans, seniors, youth and young adults and both parents. Our communities are devoid of art, music, culture, and outlets for true self expression and emotional release and NOW is the time to BRING IT BACK TO THE VILLAGE!
- I am going to challenge every system that is designed to keep us isolated, and disconnected from each other, our ideas, talents and innovation. I am going to continue connecting all of us to private sector investments that help us manufacture our own products and offer services resulting in more money staying in our district.
