Wake County Human Services is the county’s largest department, and it very often interfaces with our most vulnerable residents at their most difficult times. With us facing the worst public health crisis of our lifetimes, ensuring that we are there for residents in need is a top priority for me.

As evictions and foreclosures rise, the county needs to step up and ensure that those who made Wake County what it is, can stay here and benefit from all it has to offer. We need to make sure our citizens are housed and work to combat food insecurity. I am particularly concerned about the state of our veterans. As an Army brat, I want to make sure we put them on a path of success. Our veterans have served our country, and I look forward to serving them.
