I am running for Syracuse Common Council At-Large because I see untapped potential in our city to address some of its most pressing issues through urban agriculture. Urban agriculture offers solutions to some of our toughest problems—access to fresh food, workforce development, and even housing. The city should take the lead in the growing urban agriculture industry, using it as a tool to empower neighborhoods, create opportunities, and build a stronger, more self-sufficient Syracuse. This campaign is about collaboration and action. Together, we can reimagine Syracuse as a city that invests in its people, leads in innovation, and prioritizes equity. I’m excited to work alongside you to build a city that works for everyone. Let’s make Syracuse a leader in urban agriculture, sustainability, and community-driven progress.
