Minneapolis faces difficult challenges and we need people who are ready to make difficult choices.  

I am running for City Council because everyone deserves a voice.

We need to change the way our City Council does business. 

When elected, I will be a strong voice in protecting tax payers and small businesses from astronomical tax increases. Each year Minneapolis continues to decline in population due to the rising tax burden, leaving an even greater tax burden for those that stay.  

We must ensure that we are the leaders who will take the United States out of the greatest recession since The Great Depression.  We will do this by keeping taxes low, enticing businesses to expand and creating sustainable job growth.

Protecting our children from violence and giving our police officers the resources necessary to ensure that we are the safest city in the country will be my top priority.

Having a clean and healthy environment is vital not only for our economy but also for our health and future.  We must do everything necessary to push forward with eco-friendly programs that create jobs and ensure a happier, cleaner lifestyle.

As more and more families experience the unfortunate burden of going into foreclosure, the city of Minneapolis must stand up and work towards making housing affordable and fair while ensuring that property values grow in the future. 

Join me and together we will work towards keeping Minneapolis great!
