Why are you running for office?

I'm a former Union Representative running against a previously uncontested Republican. Contest Every Race has been helpful to me as I explored the idea of seeking out elected office. I'm running to provide voters a chance in who will ultimately represent them in policy decisions that affect their day-to-day lives.

What issues or causes in your community are most important to you?

1) Climate change and the environment

2) Affordable housing

3) Jobs & economic opportunity
