I was born and raised in Boyle County, Kentucky, and moved to Lexington in 2014. Since then, no matter where I have lived or worked, my coworkers, friends, and neighbors all described Lexington the same way: it’s a great city, but it’s too expensive. And every year, it’s gotten worse.
Rent prices have skyrocketed.
Home ownership is a pipe dream.
Our bills are rising faster than our paychecks
When I couldn’t pay rent, my friends and neighbors had my back. Now that I have the chance, I want to have your back. That’s why I’m a member of the Bluegrass Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). We fight for working people here in Lexington. We advocate for teachers and students at Fayette County Schools. We help local unions demand better working conditions. We defend Lexington’s immigrant and LGBTQIA+ communities. We’re working to build a more livable Lexington. That is why Bluegrass DSA has endorsed me for At Large City Councilman.
I am not a career politician. I don’t run a business that’s going to profit off of my candidacy. I don't own real estate investments or rental properties. I am not beholden to any corporate interests or political parties. I am not from a rich family. I don’t have a personal fortune. I am running because your voice needs to be heard in city hall. I am running because I understand the struggles that working families face. I am running because regular people need a seat at the table, and that’s exactly what I’ll deliver.
