Taking Back Our Neighborhood

Rogers Park is more than just a place on the map—it’s our home. But lately, it feels like our neighborhood is slipping away. From rising crime to empty storefronts, the signs of neglect are everywhere.

We can’t wait for change to come from City Hall. It’s up to us—neighbors, business owners, community groups—to step up and take back Rogers Park.

I’m committed to working alongside you all, listening, learning, and pushing for solutions that make a real difference. It won’t be easy, but together, we can rebuild the safe, and welcoming community we all deserve.

Let’s get to work.

Supporting Local, Saving Rogers Park

If we want Rogers Park to thrive, we must support the people and places that make it unique—especially our local businesses.

Every week, I speak with business owners who are hanging on by a thread. They face high rents, low foot traffic, and zero meaningful support from Alderman Joe Moore’s office. Some have given up. Others keep fighting, hoping that someone—anyone—will care enough to help.

I care.

That’s why I continue to promote our local shops, attend community meetings, and use my platforms to give them the visibility they deserve. We need to build a stronger, more self-sustaining Rogers Park from within. When we spend our dollars locally, we invest in our neighborhood's future.

This isn’t about politics. It’s about pride. It’s about taking ownership of the place we call home.

Let’s not wait for City Hall to save us. Let’s save ourselves.
