Neighbor, I believe.

I believe every person deserves dignity and a fair chance. I believe that stable housing creates generational wealth, strong jobs build strong communities and mental health care should be accessible, affordable, and judgment-free. That justice and equity should guide every public decision – not just be tacked on at the end.

I believe Arapahoe County can grow without leaving anyone behind. And I believe we can do that together. A challenging future demands a lot from us. If you elect me to the Arapahoe County Board of Commissioners in District 4, here’s where I’ll start:

Housing and Homeownership

  • Increase the supply of attainable housing for working and middle-class families
  • Reform zoning to allow smart, inclusive, walkable neighborhoods
  • Create programs to help first-time homebuyers build generational wealth
  • Make the generational wealth of homeownership attainable for more Aurora families.

Mental Health and Community Wellness

  • Broaden access to culturally competent and affordable mental health care
  • Expand school-based mental health programs through county funding and partnerships
  • Deploy mobile crisis units to reduce unnecessary police response
  • Treat mental health as a core part of public safety and housing policy

Economic Opportunity and Upward Mobility

  • Build job training and career pathways that lead to high-quality jobs
  • Expand youth entrepreneurship and support small business development
  • Make sure economic development benefits all neighborhoods, not just the wealthiest
  • Partner with unions, local colleges, and workforce centers to build real opportunity
