AG: My top priority is to bring a positive, forward-thinking voice to the table as we discuss how to emerge from a global pandemic and address issues that have existed long before. To thrive we need a diverse and resilient economy, quality social services and quality development with public benefits. None of this is achievable without intentional collaboration within our community. We need council members who will govern with facts, an open mind and integrity, and who value the voice of the people. With years of experience researching policy, conducting evaluation and effectively engaging with the community I possess the training and passion to do just that.
