Attorney
3+ years (since Aug. 2021)
I'm a Richmond homeowner and was also a longtime beneficiary of rent control before moving to Richmond. Our years of rent control were invaluable in helping my partner and me achieve homeownership. I'm interested in becoming more civically involved and believe my experience as both a homeowner and tenant, combined with my social justice background as a death penalty appellate lawyer, would be assets in my reappointment to this role.
