One of the only candidates that has spent their entire life in Charlottesville, I grew up watching my family, and all those around me struggle. I have spent my professional career getting into the position to make a change so those who came after me. Former Chair of the Charlottesville Democratic Party, the inaugural Treasurer of the Charlottesville Area Young Democrats, and a board member of the Charlottesville City Police Civilian Oversight Board. I humbly ask for your vote and support in the upcoming June 20 primary.
