I’m excited to share that I’ve officially filed for re-election to serve Alamo Colleges District 4. 🎓

It’s been an honor to advocate for accessible, affordable education that strengthens our students, our workforce, and our community. I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished together, and I’m ready to keep working to ensure Alamo Colleges continues to open doors of opportunity for all.

Thank you for your continued support. The work continues!
