Welcome


I’m running because Maryland needs leadership for a change.

I grew up in east Baltimore in a working class family. I’ve worked my way through college and law school.

I’ve been a member in 3 unions. I have had a variety of jobs and my experience is that of working Marylanders. 

I’m not a career politician.  I don’t owe my position to special interest groups, lobbyist or corporate interest. 

I’ll work for you the men, women and families of Maryland. I will put people first. 

Maryland needs bold new ideas, new plans, and new leadership. That’s what I offer. I’d appreciate your vote.

THANK YOU.
