'I’m running because I truly love Denver and I know together we can restore the promise of our city.'
I’ve never run for office before, and spending time with residents all over this city has only reinforced my love of Denver, and my confidence that together we can make Denver a city that works for every single one of us.
However, life doesn’t always go as planned. My husband struggled with addiction, and we eventually lost him to suicide. Being a single mom raising two daughters on my own was hard. But I knew I had to be strong for my girls, and Denver was a strong foundation for us as a family. One of my top priorities will be to save lives and get our unhoused neighbors to safer locations immediately. I’m the only candidate who would be taking a regional approach on day one, which is endorsed by mayors in the Denver metro area. We know we can’t do it alone. We know that pushing people who are unhoused from one city boundary to the next won’t help them or us. We know the numbers demand more than shelters and tiny homes and that more than one city alone can house.Collaboration is key.
I am running to represent and serve the people of Denver — not any specific interest group or donor. I have been fully transparent throughout the campaign and will be as mayor. And I have made no promises to any donors or endorsers.
