Since mid-2024, I have spent my evenings and weekends building grassroots organizations. I rechartered the Cobb Young Democrats around two central pillars: year-round organizing and creating a third place where young people can get politically involved. I was elected Vice President of Membership for the Young Democrats of Georgia and also serve as a State Committee Member for the Democratic Party of Georgia.
One of my core values is being the change you want to see. I’m fed up with our representatives being beholden to special interests and large corporations. I’m running a campaign focused on the people who make this state run. No matter what color your collar is, this campaign is about you. Workers have been forced to accept too little for far too long.
My platform is centered on affordability. I will focus on leveling the playing field for Georgians looking to buy homes, ensuring healthcare is accessible, lowering the cost of child care, and supporting and defending small businesses.- The tax code is ours to write: We do not have to accept a tax code that favors large corporations or the billionaire class. One of the greatest powers our Founders gave The People was control over taxation, a right once reserved for kings and queens. If we organize and use it, we can build a tax system that works for all Georgians.
Right now, our tax code helps corporate investors buy up homes that should belong to everyday Georgians. Georgians are not just competing against limitless sums of money, they’re competing against a system designed to give big players the edge.
As your State Senator, I will fight to level the playing field and ensure that every Georgian has a fair shot at home ownership. - Small businesses are the backbone of Georgia: Our economy should reward hard work, entrepreneurship, and the courage to build something of your own. But too often, family owned, small, and medium-sized businesses are left to absorb rising healthcare costs, supply chain shocks, reckless tariffs, and tighter access to capital. Meanwhile, massive corporations use their leverage to pressure suppliers, undercut competitors, shape laws in their favor, and capture the largest subsidies. As your State Senator, I will work to make Georgia a place where small businesses can compete and thrive. Investing in small businesses creates jobs, strengthens competition, and helps families build wealth of their own.
- I’m running because I understand what is at stake. I’m not someone who just appeared in the community to run for office. Since mid-2024, I have devoted much of my free time to building up the community. If we want money out of politics, we have to organize. If we want a system that works for us, we have to organize. If we want the next generation to inherit something other than our debt, we have to organize. We do not have the luxury of waiting for someone to save us. We are who we’ve been waiting for, and it's time to stand up.
Education is a perfect example. Investing in education isn’t just the right thing to do; it’s also the smart thing to do for our economy. An educated and well-trained population attracts businesses, drives growth, and generates revenues that we can reinvest in future generations.
