Advocating for inclusivity has been a cornerstone of my beliefs, driven by the conviction that diverse voices must be heard in decision-making processes. Being the only Latina in many rooms has presented challenges, especially in conveying the real struggles of minority communities to those less culturally diverse.

My dedication to our community is deep-rooted, and it's evident through years of volunteer work with local organizations and collaboration with legislators and business owners. From forging partnerships with initiatives like the Marie Wilkinson Food Pantry and APS Training Academy to advocating for adult education with institutions like Lewis University and San Agustin College, I've worked tirelessly to uplift those in need. As your mayoral candidate, I pledge to continue serving our diverse community with integrity, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to progress.
