In 2017-yes, I’m one of those-I realized I had to take my political advocacy to the next level, so I showed up to my first Ward election.Like many new faces, I learned how this system works. The learning curve was steep, then COVID reshaped everything. But our deeper failure goes back further — we never dismantled the systems built to uphold inequality. That failure still shapes our democracy today. This moment calls for people who are not afraid to rebuild, not just repair. I want to help elect bold leaders who will create a government that truly serves all people.

After moving to New Mexico from Florida, where I served on Democratic boards and worked on local campaigns, my husband and I have hosted Democratic events at our home in Mesa Del Sol.

I am honored to be considered to be a delegate. I want to be a delegate for Deb Haaland because I believe she is the best candidate to lead our state because she has grit. Anyone who has fought the addiction battle understands the fight is daily no matter how long one stays sober. She has experience in working across the aisle and getting legislation passed. I appreciate she doesn’t forget who she is and embraces her life experience. When my sons were young I too had to make ends meet on food stamps and the Church share boxes.

The current anemic democratic national leadership needs to offer a path forward for voters. Simply being not-Trump won’t cut it. Candidates need to be to be asked hard questions now, before the general election, so they will be ready for the incoming backlash. Democratic leaders mistake hatred for Trump with support for their cause, while ignoring the disillusionment their actions have imparted on the electorate. I aim to make sure this sentiment is heard and, hopefully, passed up the ranks, for the sake of our democracy. I’m running to get this message out now, because 2028 will be too late.
