What about your background makes you stand out as a candidate? I grew up homeless and in foster care. At 12, I moved in with friends to graduate high school. I joined the Air Force as a cop. I was a child victim from 8 to 15 years old. I would be the rst Thurgood Marshall District Attorney in Harris County.

Harris County district attorney

If elected, what would your top priorities be?

Confronting courthouse case backlog, building a team of “play-no-favorite” prosecutors, making sure the oce runs eciently, and building strong coalitions with law enforcement and all communities.

My top priorities as district attorney would be reducing violent crime, expanding diversion programs for nonviolent oˆenders and improving case management. I’ll also focus on rebuilding morale within the oce, retaining experienced prosecutors, and ensuring a fair, transparent justice system that protects our community.

With over a decade of experience as a prosecutor, including six years leading the Vehicular Crimes Division, I’ve handled a wide range of cases, from misdemeanors to capital murder. My deep roots in Harris County, coupled with my commitment to justice and community safety, set me apart as a candidate.
