- Baltimore is a vibrant community which I love to call home. The big issues that we face - - from crime, to addiction, to generational poverty - - are state level issues that require multi-jurisdictional solutions. My prior work on these issues guides my run for office. As a former teacher at Patterson High School, I am advocating for universal pre-K and enhanced after-school programming to increase access to educational opportunities for our children. As a non-profit public health attorney working in the University of Maryland system, I am advocating for universal health care coverage, increased access to primary care medical services, and enhanced addiction treatment services throughout Maryland.

The way to make this happen is to create a Baltimore Metropolitan Transportation Authority that has bond authority and is governed by an independent board of experts whose sole mission is to conduct the planning and management needed to bring these massive, multi-decade infrastructure pr
