"I come from a family with deep roots and strong ties to the City of Wilmington and, especially, West Center City.  My family and I have been involved with community outreach, community engagement and community building for over fifty years.  I will build on my family legacy by working closely with the residents of the 5th District -  connecting, engaging and to helping to  shape a new direction for our vibrant community. 
 
Together, we will create more affordable housing, encourage economic expansion, improve community awareness, and make public safety - especially getting guns off the streets - a top priority.
 
My experience and legacy of family community engagement, will lead our community with positive solutions while working closely and productively with other city and state governmental agencies.  I am committed to leading the force for positive change in the 5th District."
