House of Delegates Member · Legislative District 23 · Maryland · 2026 Primary
Members of the Maryland House of Delegates represent their local districts in the state legislature by proposing, debating, and voting on laws that impact public education, healthcare, and transportation. They work alongside the state Senate to pass Maryland’s annual budget and determine how tax dollars are allocated to community services and infrastructure projects. This office is vital because delegates shape the statewide policies and spending priorities that directly influence the daily lives of all residents.

I’m not a career politician. I’m an educator who has spent over a decade mentoring young people... I’m running because I believe District 23 deserves a representative who doesn’t just talk about our schools, but someone who’s in them every day.
Teaching shouldn’t require a second job to survive, and learning shouldn’t depend on a parent’s zip code.
Every decision I make will start with one question: how does this help the families of District 23?
No corporate PAC money. This campaign is built by neighbors, for neighbors, and that’s how I’ll govern.

Education & Strong Schools
Advocates for fully funding the Blueprint for Maryland's Future, increasing teacher salaries to ensure state salary equity, and protecting elective programs like the arts.
“Teacher salaries in Prince George's County must be competitive enough that educators don't need second jobs to make rent. I support sustained PGCEA contract funding and state salary equity across counties.”
Youth Opportunity
Focuses on expanding Career and Technical Education (CTE) and apprenticeship pipelines tied to local employers in healthcare, construction, and tech.
“I'll fight for more registered apprenticeship pipelines tied to local employers... so students graduate with credentials, not just diplomas.”
Public Safety & School Discipline
Proposes tiered mandatory escalation frameworks for violent behavior and legal protections for school staff against threats and harassment.
“I'll push for a tiered mandatory escalation framework including alternative placement options that holds behavior accountable without defaulting to zero-tolerance policies.”
Government Transparency
Commits to regular communication with constituents through town halls and public voting records.
“Monthly town halls, quarterly vote reports, and an open door. You deserve to know what your delegate is doing and why.”
“Fully fund the Blueprint for Maryland's Future.”
