“I believe in giving everyone a voice”

“I believe in giving everyone a voice and helping them achieve their potential. As a social worker, a paraprofessional educator, a caregiver, a friend, a spouse and parent, I have worked steadily and passionately for the good of my hometown and its residents. I understand the strengths as well as the needs of Mount Vernon’s Latino residents, especially migrant farmworkers and their families. As city a councilwoman for Ward 1, I will encourage residents to participate more fully in the community and work tirelessly to continue to bridge the gap between the Anglo and Latino communities in our beautiful valley.”
