Ballotpedia biographical submission form
The candidate completed Ballotpedia's biographical information submission form:
| “ | What is your political philosophy?
I am a community champion who will get things done in a post-partisan manner. The days of our country's zero-sum politics do not provide any tangible benefit to all of the people, all of the time. During my career, I have spent a significant amount of time generating buy-in for federal legislation to curb severe poverty. I have a clear vision to transform our communities with innovative solutions to accommodate affordable housing, alleviate poverty and create jobs, promote responsible development, revamp recycling and smart infrastructure. My plan will end homelessness within the duration of my term in office. Is there anything you would like to add? As a person who grew up in one poorest counties in the nation, I understand how sound policy can be transformative to unlock untapped potential. Surviving gang violence led me to protect the most vulnerable communities among us. I am a leader who resides at the nexus between ingenuity, business acumen, and robust policy expertise, to breathe life into big ideas for today's issues; not those of yesteryear.[2] |
