Forums/Meetings/Press
This page is where you can find the events/forums that I will be participating in. In most cases, the other mayoral candidates will also be appearing. This changes on almost a daily basis, so check back for updates. I would like to meet up with citizens ALL over the city, as I intend to represent everyone - not select groups. If you would like for me to come and meet with you, your neighbors or group, please send me an email ([email protected]) and I will get back to you as quickly as possible.
