My background helped me understand the importance of education. I grew up in a working poor family. My education in the public schools allowed me to go on to college. That’s why I am so committed to having the best public schools here. My son Austin attends Fairview Elementary, a DPS school. Every parent I’ve met in this community wants the best for his or her children and grandchildren. I will stand with you to advocate for DPS to pay attention to our schools in northwest Denver, to make sure all of our children can go to great schools right here in our neighborhood. Our children deserve the best foundation for future success.
