Education
As the only mother running for City Council District 1, I deeply understand the responsibility we have to our children. All students should have access to the resources, teachers, and support they need to succeed. As your Councilmember, I’ll fight for better pay and resources for our teachers, more after-school programs to engage our youth, and greater investment in public schools.
I’ll also work to eliminate funding gaps, restore funding for early education, and make childcare more affordable. We must ensure that all children—regardless of background—can succeed and reach their potential.
This is about creating a future where every child can dream big and achieve even bigger.
