ACCESS

Equity requires access. For all of Athens to obtain equitable government, all of our community must have access to elected officials.  Particularly for those of us who live on the East Side, we must all have the social infrastructure necessary to improve our quality of life.  Authentic, open conversations only happen when access is a priority. As a longtime public servant, I have made being accessible to my community a top priority.

ALLIES

Becoming an ally is a lifelong process.  It's a relationship built on trust, transparency, and consistency in the pursuit of our common connections.  As a lifelong Athenian, I have fostered those types of connections all across this community, and I continue to work for the betterment of the whole community.

ACCOUNTABILITY

Accountability is the foundation of equitable representation in a local government.  Elected officials must be accountable to the public.  As a result  of my lifelong history here in Athens, and my strong family and community ties —particularly to the East Side and District 8 — being accountable and letting my word be my bond is of the utmost importance.
