On Tuesday, October 8, 2019, I earned enough votes to secure one of two at-large seats on Raleigh City Council.  I want to thank outgoing incumbent Russ Stephenson for his long-term service and for his kindness both during and after the campaign.   But most of all, I want to thank all of you for entrusting me with this responsibility. I intend to be accessible, thoughtful, and to make well-informed decisions that will serve Raleigh in the long term.  I ask you to hold me accountable to the pledges I made on the campaign trail.  The future of our city is incredibly bright, and I am eager to see what we can achieve.
