Proud to serve as an at-large member of the Montgomery County Council to represent all residents.

As we move through another busy season, I remain grateful for the opportunity to serve our community and engage in the important conversations shaping our future. From ongoing budget discussions to key policy decisions, there is no shortage of challenges and opportunities ahead. In my November newsletter, I share updates on recent Council activities, community initiatives, and issues that matter most to our residents. As always, I encourage you to stay informed, stay engaged, and make your voice heard. Together, we can continue building a stronger community for everyone. Please check out my November highlight to read my newsletter.

This week, I presented a proclamation recognizing National Bullying Prevention Month. Our speakers said it perfectly: it takes everyone being kind to ensure no one feels alone and we encourage a community where all belong.

October is National Principals Month! We recognized our MCPS school leaders earlier this month with a proclamation at the Council. Our principals create positive, inclusive, and academically rich environments while championing equity and supporting students, staff, and families every day. Take a moment to thank your principal for their dedication and commitment.

I had the opportunity to stand alongside Councilmember Kate Stewart, Council colleagues, Habitat for Humanity, public school employees, and community partners as we highlighted a package of proposals designed to support working families, educators, and older adults across our county. There is a shared commitment behind these bills that aim to expand tax credit options for homeowners, eligible MCPS employees, and families with modest incomes. I remain committed to strengthening economic stability and uplifting those who keep our community thriving.

Congratulations to the Conflict Resolution Center of Montgomery County on their 25th anniversary. I was happy to help them celebrate this milestone and appreciate their commitment to fostering dialogue and helping us build a stronger community.

I joined my colleagues in a celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month during the Council’s thirteenth annual commemoration. This year’s theme, “Unidos, Somos Más: Celebrating the Stories, Strength, and Contributions of Our Latino Community,” honored the rich history, culture, and resilience that continue to shape Montgomery County. The event featured a beautiful performance by DNZ Folklore with Renato and Dany Soria, a special video program, and a Council proclamation recognizing the profound impact of our Latino community. I am appreciative of everyone who shared in this moment and look forward to continuing the work of uplifting the voices and traditions that strengthen our county.

Having heard from residents during my listening sessions, I am honored to be a lead sponsor for Bill 47-26 that expands the Homeowners’ Tax Credit to more working families and seniors so that they can afford to remain in their homes. I am thankful to play a role in helping bring forward solutions that make a real difference to the residents of Montgomery County.

It was a pleasure to be part of Montgomery County’s 250th Anniversary Proclamation! I am inspired to stand alongside community leaders and residents as we celebrated our county’s rich history, resilience, and progress. Moments like this remind me how meaningful it is to contribute to a community with such a strong legacy and an even brighter future.

I was excited to see so many inquisitive students show up ready to engage, ask thoughtful questions, and learn more about our county at our Youth Town Hall. Their curiosity and passion for understanding how local government works remind me why youth voices matter, and why we should strive to uplift them.

Still feeling inspired after attending the 2026 Heroes Against Hunger Awards at The Music Center at Strathmore! Being in a room full of advocates, partners, and community leaders dedicated to ending food insecurity was truly powerful. From celebrating Crossroads Community Food Network’s innovative SNAP/WIC‑matching programs to honoring the late Steven Mandel’s lifelong service and recognizing OpenText’s commitment to community support, the night showcased what real impact looks like. Manna Food Center’s mission to build lasting food security, not just fill plates, was at the heart of the evening, reminding us how vital community action is in ensuring no neighbor goes hungry. I am truly grateful to have been part of such a meaningful and hope‑filled event.
