Why
I'm Running

After four years of working tirelessly to reform and strengthen Memphis-Shelby County Schools, I’m ready to take that same commitment to the Shelby County Commission. My priorities are clear: growing the overall economy, keeping people safe and healthy, and ensuring every tax dollar works for our residents. I believe Memphis families deserve the chance to get ahead—and stay ahead—but too often, our systems don’t work together to make that possible. I bring solutions-driven leadership focused on breaking down barriers, expanding opportunity, and building a county where every family can thrive.
