I’m Running Because:

  • District 1 deserves and must have the efficient & equitable delivery of city services.
  • District 1 cannot be an after-thought or a lesser priority because of its geographic location, regardless of the location of neighborhoods.
  • The sum total of my experience as a consumer of city services, as well as my active duty military service, have effectively prepared me to work to make Atlanta the best place for all residents to live, work, and recreate.[5]
