In a professional capacity, I have experience working in the public and private sectors, including the United States House of Representatives as a Staff Writer. I work as a consultant and subject-matter expert in the finance and information technology fields. As a consultant, I have used my experience to consult major entities, including BCD Travel, Xerox, Time, Inc., The New York City Department of Health, and The University of Alabama.

In District 65, I continue to mentor youth, support local schools, and recently served on the City of South Fulton Zoning Board of Appeals where I was a watchdog protecting the best interests of our neighbors. I am a 2024 Post Seat holder for the Fulton County Democrats and I serve on the Executive Committee of the South Fulton Democrats.

Beyond my professional obligations, I have strived to stay active in the communities I call home.

• A Public Health Framework

  I have a plan for hospitals in our region:

  -I will fight to fix the broken process for building new hospitals in Georgia-I will advocate to use Georgia’s surplus to bring quality healthcare back to our region after recent attrition-I will stand up to Georgia’s hospital industry and lobbyists. I’m calling the industry out right now and bringing light to the disgraced lack of healthcare in our region-I will take practical steps like allowing physician-owned, university-owned, and HBCU-owned surgery centers that feature multiple specialists

  -I will work to expand medicaid in Georgia and demand that all Georgians have access to adequate healthcare
• Economic DevelopmentThe state must do more to bring quality development and jobs to our region. We must guard our residential neighborhoods from improper zoning, predatory rental properties and misguided development. I have heard from our neighbors, and we all want smart, safe, clean communities. District 65 must use future-forward technologies like electric vehicles, solar energy, blockchain technology and cybersecurity to upgrade the state’s grid and capabilities. Let’s become an information technology hub! Computer Science, STEM, IT and Skilled Trade training programs are also needed.
• EducationAs a proud product of public schools, I am an advocate for quality of education in our district. I’ve had the opportunity to attend some of the premiere colleges and universities in the country. I want all our children to have the same opportunity: -I oppose special interests groups who want to take money from public schools and send it to private schools and charter schools that don't have proper oversight and that rally even open their doors in our communities-It’s time to prioritized public education and equip our students with forward-facing skills. We can enrich our students in the classroom and beyond -We need to hire more public school teachers and pay them better.

I will continue to stand against attacks on civil rights and voting rights in Georgia and beyond:

-I am calling for the repeal of Georgia's restrictive voting laws and attempts to block fair access to the ballot
I support third-party redistricting as a way to prevent the partisan maps we are witnessing this year
-I am calling for Election Day to be a state holiday in Georgia

My life has been dedicated to service and development. Born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama, I grew up in one of the primary battleground cities of the Civil Rights Movement. Growing up surrounded by this legacy caused me to become engaged and involved in community service and development activities at a young age. I got my start in the community serving as the Chairman of Youth for Mothers Against Violence. During this time, I worked raising funds for Birmingham area youth to attend political rallies and functions in the region.

• The best interest of the community comes first. The neighbors deserve the head seat at the table.
• In addition to getting illegal guns off the street, we must focus on strengthening the relationship between the community and police.
• Let’s be honest, no one wants to make a big money bet in a district where the politics are full of drama. If we continue to have political bickering, most businesses that we are longing for will see us as too big of a risk.

To get all this done we need leaders who are collaborators and facilitators. We don’t need any more drama. Our future is not served by divisive politics, dysfunction, and stubborn public policy. I’m deeply concerned that without proper planning, spending and policies we will continue to hit roadblocks and dead ends as a rising region
