​District 11 has been my home since my family immigrated to America twenty-four years ago. Like many District 11 families, we are a multigenerational household – I am a mom of two daughters and care for my elderly parents. Our city can do more to help our families succeed.
 
For over twenty years, I worked in service to our community as a union organizer and community advocate. I pushed to empower workers, strengthen language access, promote cross-racial solidarity and improve services for families.
