Everyone in Rogers Park deserves to navigate this neighborhood with dignity — regardless of age, ability, or income.
But too often, I’ve seen broken sidewalks, inaccessible storefronts, and public spaces that leave neighbors behind. I’ve heard from seniors and people with disabilities who feel invisible to the systems that are supposed to serve them.
For years, I’ve advocated for accessibility improvements — not just for compliance, but for compassion.
Recently, I’ve been asked if I’m considering a run for Alderman. I’m thinking about it, because I believe Rogers Park needs leadership that makes equity a priority — not an afterthought.
If I run, I’ll work to make our streets, transit, businesses, and community programs fully accessible — and make sure people with disabilities have a permanent seat at the table.
Everyone belongs in Rogers Park. That must include everyone.

I believe in Rogers Park.
I believe in our small businesses that serve with pride, our seniors who carry our history, our students full of energy and ideas, our artists who give voice to the soul of the neighborhood, and every resident who wants to feel safe, respected, and heard.
I also believe we deserve better.
Too many concerns go unanswered. Too many community meetings feel like empty gestures. Too many people feel like they’re on their own. That’s not the Rogers Park I want — and I know I’m not alone.
That’s why, for years, I’ve stayed involved. Promoting local shops, picking up trash, showing up to city meetings, standing with neighbors, and saying what needs to be said — even when it’s unpopular.
People have asked if I plan to run for Alderman. The truth is, I might. But not for a title. For a cause.
I believe in a Rogers Park where leadership means being present — where every resident feels like they matter, and every business has a shot at success. That’s the future I’m committed to working for, no matter what role I play.
A stronger Rogers Park isn’t just possible — it’s overdue. And I’m ready to help make it happen.

One of the biggest challenges facing Rogers Park is housing — affordable, safe, and stable homes for all residents.
I’ve spoken with many neighbors who worry about rising rents, displacement, and the lack of support for seniors and families struggling to stay in the neighborhood they love.
For years, I’ve been involved in efforts to listen, advocate, and connect people with resources — but I know more needs to be done.
Some have asked if I’m considering running for Alderman. I’ve thought about it, because I believe strong leadership on housing issues is critical to preserving the diversity and character of Rogers Park.
If I step forward, I want to work toward solutions that protect renters and homeowners alike, promote affordable housing, and ensure everyone has a place to call home.
Our neighborhood’s future depends on it — and I’m ready to be part of that work.
