While yes, I have a science PhD, I also believe that it shouldn’t take an advanced degree to understand your healthcare. Between confusing bills, denied claims, and hours on hold with insurance companies, getting care can feel impossible. I’m running to fix our broken healthcare system.

Real change isn’t just about who wins an election. It’s about whether people understand their own power, build relationships, and have the infrastructure to keep organizing long after Election Day. That’s how you build power that lasts.
