ABOUT ME
Bringing your values to City Council
I ran for office to ensure environmental responsibility for housing and transit projects, to maintain our roads, and to ensure that city services such as new fire stations and homeless care are brought to our region. I am pro-choice, I believe that Austin can be a leader in gun safety reform, and I believe the corporations moving here must pay their fair share.

Texas Born and Raised
I hold a Bachelor's degree in Sociology from the University of Texas at San Antonio, and my professional background includes working for a consulting firm that ensures environmental responsibility for housing and transportation projects. I learned the value of public service from my mom who was was a public school teacher and my dad who worked the night shift taking X-rays at the local hospital.
