Volunteer

Shortly after college, I accepted a job as a substitute teacher. I was assigned to a school in the Cabrini Green projects of Chicago - known for their extreme poverty, violence and crime. There I met and worked with kindergarten children who were already left behind. That experience helped shape my values today—that every child deserves an opportunity to succeed in life.

I've worked to create jobs, protect our environment, strengthen public schools, build affordable housing for our lowest-income residents and communities of color, help the uninsured access healthcare and create an economy that provides opportunity for all.

These are the values I'll fight for as your next Metro Councilor.
