Candidate for CA, 34th Congressional District

I’ve lived the struggles too many of us face every day in Los Angeles—poverty, homelessness, and a system that feels stacked against working families. After years as a community organizer, advocating for environmental, social, and economic justice, I’m stepping up at 30 to bring bold, progressive change to Congress. This isn’t just a campaign—it’s personal.

Candidate for IL, 7th Congressional District

I’m running for Congress because our community deserves more than empty promises and political performances.

We need bold, moral leadership—leaders who know our blocks, not just our ballots. For too long, our schools have been underfunded, our streets over-policed, and our neighborhoods underserved. I’m running to build a full-service mental health center that will serve single mothers and children. I’m committed to affordable housing, economic development, and reforming the systems that divide us, including the zoning and policy decisions that have led to segregated schools and communities.

The Democratic National Committee’s Local Listeners program is built around a simple idea: Democrats are stronger when they listen first. The program trains volunteers and organizers to have real, relationship-based conversations—especially in communities that often feel ignored—so local concerns, not assumptions, shape messaging and outreach. Instead of leading with talking points, Local Listeners creates a feedback loop that helps campaigns stay grounded in what voters actually care about.
