Stronger When We Stand Together

Rogers Park is many things: a tapestry of cultures, ages, and stories — each unique, each vital.

But sometimes, that diversity can feel like division. We hear different voices, see different needs, and sometimes feel pulled apart rather than woven together.

I believe the strength of our neighborhood lies in unity — in listening to one another, finding common ground, and building a future that honors all of us.

For years, I’ve worked to bridge gaps — supporting small businesses, advocating for seniors, empowering youth, and celebrating every culture that calls Rogers Park home.

Many have asked if I’m thinking about running for Alderman. I’m considering it because I want to be a leader who brings people together, not drives them apart.

If I run, I’ll focus on fostering understanding, creating partnerships, and ensuring every voice is heard and respected.

Together, we can build a Rogers Park that’s stronger, kinder, and ready for whatever comes next.
