A Community Leader, Small Business Owner, and Hampton Roads Native I have proven my dedication to public service time and again. From my time serving on the Chesapeake Bay Preservation Area Board to fighting for Environmental Justice with the Chesapeake NAACP I know what it takes to fight and win. In Richmond I will continue the fight to protect our communities and families.
Protect Our Families
The foundation of a Strong Family is a Strong Economy that works for everyone. Record inflation, corporate greed, and stagnant wages have put our families at-risk while Virginia has stood idly by. As a blue collar worker who grew up living paycheck-to-paycheck I understand that the problems in our economy have been hurting our families for decades. In Richmond, I am committed to growing our economy with a focus on our families.
Defend Our Veterans
Hampton Roads has one of the largest populations of veterans in our nation. Why? Because Virginia has invested in creating an economy that works for our veterans and their families. But that is now at risk. As the child of a Navy veteran I will fight against any attempts to rollback benefits for our veterans and their families including the preservation of VMSDEP.
Support Our Farmers
Farming is a core aspect of both Suffolk & Chesapeake’s identity. Yet the inabilities of our government to provide viable pathways to protect our farmers and bring in the next generation of farmers has resulted in the loss of farmland. As a leader in the fight against excessive development I am committed to enacting policies at the state level to ensure our farmers are supported.
