Education

As a proud of graduate of Gwinnett Public Schools and a HOPE scholarship recipient, I know firsthand how education access can lead to success, regardless of income. That’s why I’m committed to fully funding our public schools — starting with better pay and real support for our teachers, and ensuring schools have the structural resources they need to thrive. We'll protect the HOPE Scholarship for future generations and reexamine the needs of Georgia’s education system to make sure it's built for both access and excellence. Every family, every classroom, and every educator deserves the tools to succeed. Learn more

Environment / Energy

Every Georgian deserves to breathe clean air and drink safe water — no exceptions. As a member of the Gwinnett Transit Advisory Board, I understand how local decisions impact environmental health. We must hold polluters accountable, protect our water sources, and reduce the toxins that threaten our families. Environmental justice starts with the basics — because clean air and clean water aren't luxuries, they're rights. Our future depends on protecting them today. Learn more

Healthcare

No one should have to choose between getting treatment and going into debt — but too many Georgians lie awake at night worrying about how to pay a hospital bill. Across the state, hospitals are closing, rural care is disappearing, and our leaders have still failed to expand Medicaid. That’s not just bad policy — it’s a crisis. I believe in fighting for healthcare access and reproductive freedom for all, because every Georgian deserves to see a doctor, fill a prescription, and care for their loved ones without fear. It’s time we stop playing politics with people’s health and start putting families first. Learn more

Georgia is facing a mental health crisis — one that touches every generation, from students to seniors. It’s time we treat mental health like the urgent public issue it is. That means expanding access to care, funding community-based support systems, and making services affordable and stigma-free. Whether it’s a teen struggling in silence or an elder battling isolation, no Georgian should be left behind. Mental health is health — and our policies should finally reflect that. Learn more

Housing

Homeowners’ associations should serve the people — not overpower them. We're fighting for balanced regulations that stop HOA overreach, including limits on excessive fines, surprise fees, and the abuse of eviction powers. No family should lose their home over arbitrary penalties. At the same time, we'll support struggling HOAs with clearer guidance and oversight to help them function with support they need. Housing should feel like home, not like a battle. Learn more

Infrastructure / Transportation

I’m committed to reducing traffic by improving road infrastructure, optimizing traffic signal timing, and supporting smart growth strategies that encourage balanced development. By focusing on better road maintenance, safer intersections, and thoughtful land-use planning, we can ease congestion, shorten commute times, and create a more efficient and reliable transportation network for everyone in our community.

Wages / Job Benefits

I stand firmly with working class people, because labor built our state, and labor will shape its future. That means protecting the right to organize, supporting unions, and ensuring fair wages and safe working conditions across every industry. I’ll always advocate for domestic job creation that puts Georgia workers first — not outsourcing or corporate shortcuts. From factory floors to classrooms, our economy should reward hard work, not exploit it. Learn more
