I’m a mom and a professor of Constitutional Law and Human Rights. I’m running to bring your voice to Hartford – because we need new leadership with a new vision.
I am a product of the American dream. My father came to this country in 1969 and ended up designing parts for the space shuttle. I was born on the Fourth of July, and was born and raised in Queens, NY, attending public schools. I went on to pursue a career in public service as the director of a non-profit juvenile delinquency prevention program and later as a law professor due to our excellent public school systems. 20 years ago, my husband and I made our home here.
I believe in a government that prioritizes people, not special interests or personal benefit. I believe in a system that preserves the fundamental values of our democracy by making sure that government is accountable and transparent. I believe absentee ballot abuse must be rejected, and that the people must have faith in our electoral processes.
I believe in a government that invests in our future through public education, modernization of infrastructure, the fixing of gaping potholes, and the improvement of our quality of life.
I’m sure that you’ve heard the promises before. That’s why I’ve chosen to spend my summer and fall knocking on thousands of doors across Bridgeport, Trumbull, and Monroe to take time to talk with you—and to really listen.
Together, we can tackle the fundamental structural issues our state faces and create a politics for the public good. I look forward to meeting you at your doorstep, and let’s take that vision to Hartford.
