Why I am Running...

I’m running for this court because I genuinely care about how people experience the justice system, and I believe it works best when it is guided by both knowledge and kindness. I have handled numerous cases in this court.

​

Justice of the Peace courts handle thousands of cases that directly affect people’s daily lives, including housing, credit card debt, and lawsuits up to $20,000. Those decisions require a judge who understands the law and applies it fairly. A Justice of the Peace is a judge. It is a legal job, not a political one.​​

​

I’m running because everyone deserves to be treated with respect and I believe my extensive knowledge of the law will benefit our Dallas community if I am elected to serve. Understanding people is important but knowing the law is non-negotiable.  ​​

​

I’m a small business owner and a grassroots candidate. This is my first time running for an elected office. I am not politically well connected but I am a hard worker. I worked a blue-collar job for years in order to save  for law school and waited tables at night while working on my undergraduate degree. I have led teams and volunteered often in our Dallas community.

​

DFW has been home for my entire adult life. I live in Precinct 5. It is a large and diverse Precinct. 

 

One of my favorite sayings is, “Be the change you wish to see.”

​I will be on the ballot for the 2026 Dallas County Democratic Primary Election.
