I am a single Sikh woman- supporting herself. A travel professional for over 25 years,Realtor.I am passionate about Public safety & Health peace, sustainable development, Transparency and Accountability. And tourism. Since I purchased my Homestead in 2019 in UTSW medical district in District-2 .

I love children and see from their perspective.

Peace,Health and enforcement of Law is important to me .
  • Peace,Public Safety &Health,Sustainable Development,Affordability ,Public knowledge & awareness. Lower property taxes and rents are important for a healthy economy ,neighborhoods and businesses to thrive.
  • At any income levels- we all can make a difference in our lives, communities and neighborhoods.

Public safety and health,Transparency and Accountability . Enforcement of the Law .
Being a Dallas city council member is a service for the people and not a job for me . Where how a council member votes makes a difference in the outcome of the public safety and housing costs and
success of the commercial sector,tourism. 

As all city hall expenditures comes from the taxes collected from the real property owners and hotel occupancy tax revenues etc. Even grant from state and federal governments is from taxes collected from the people.
A healthy,safer and prosperous city make up the same for a state and legal system.

Knowledge,honesty,integrity and courage to take action Ihe benefit of all is more important.
Knowledge, honesty, understanding ,people skills and ability to learn and work for the people. And courage to take action.
To me A city council member is the eyes and ears of the people in their district,Interaction with the people and businesses to address their needs is important. And to share with the city management team vote in the city hall for the best interest of the people.
Privacy is a hard thing to keep when A person like to talk and be in public.

My mom used to tell us a a kid . How important it is to listen, be aware and talk less ..
People from both sides of the aisle support me as they want public safety health lower taxes and rents and sustainable development.
Transparency and accountability in all city hall expenditures is the key to success. Very important for safer and healthier communities and neighborhoods,businesses and tourism.
