| Collapse all
With a lot of hard work, dedication, and just a bit of luck, I became the first in my family to graduate high school, college, and law school. I have worked in D.C. and Ireland. I am now a family law, legal aid attorney, a community organizer, a former fellow to Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, and a concerned citizen.
I will advocate for the people who have been left behind and forgotten. Texas and Texans deserve better. I intend to fight for the people and their needs.- Every Texan: deserves affordable housing, higher wages, and guaranteed child care.
- Every student: deserves affordable, safe, and high-quality public education.
- Every person: deserves affordable and accessible healthcare.
