District 10 stands on the edge of a new era. I am very grateful for the confidence you have placed in me to represent your interests on the Dallas City Council. Thank you particularly to Alan Walne, Donna Halstead and Dean Vanderbilt for their enthusiastic support.
After a vigorous campaign, I am acutely aware of a number of realities: No. 1, our neighborhoods are vibrant and active (note the high voter turn out for our district); No. 2, there are concerns that demand immediate and ongoing attention; and No. 3, there can be a bright future for our area if we all work together to achieve it.
As I begin my tenure, I pledge that I will work diligently, listen attentively and be a catalyst for change when necessary. Our city council needs pragmatic, energetic and conciliatory members in order to move the City of Dallas forward. My goal is to represent the specific interests and concerns of our neighborhood, while working to create a city that makes us all proud to call Dallas home.
