Thank you for the privilege of representing you on the Boston City Council.  Boston is a great place to live, work and raise a family—and I am committed to working with you to make sure that it not only remains that way but becomes an even more vibrant place to call home.

I know there are people across the city who are concerned about our schools, the affordability of our communities, and the safety of our neighborhoods. I know first hand what people are talking about. I’m a parent with three young children in the Boston Public Schools,  I’m a homeowner and I’ve been a victim of random violence. I am committed to working to building an even better Boston.

Working together, respecting our differences while honoring our traditions, we can move forward in a way that makes Boston the home we all want it to be. You have placed your trust in me to help make this happen. I honor your trust and carry your concerns into the work I do as your At-Large City Councilor.
