We Deserve Better! Let's Make It Better!
While the current school board meetings are streamed live and aired on the local stations, transparency can and must improve. As your next school board member, I commit to keeping District 3 informed during and after all meetings and speak with District 3 parents, teachers, & students before making decisions that will impact them.
It's vitally important that we improve accountability in the school system. We must hold the Superintendent and entire school board responsible for every contract they sign and every ineffective leader within the district.
It is important that we perform a complete review of the budget with a focus on an effective use of funds, and publishing the review in a detailed easy-to-read format. The budget should reflect that we care about our youth; we do that by paying our educators more.

He has matriculated through the University of Central Arkansas, he is currently furthering his education at Western Governors University. He is an advocate for victims of interpersonal violence and works in the mental health field serving over 144 youth in the Greater Shelby County area.
Why are you running for School Board?
I have lived in Memphis for the last 4 years, and I watched the School District experience so many changes that have negatively impacted our youth. I have talked to teachers and students, and they are all dissatisfied with the current direction of the district. As a father of a school-age child, I want to ensure that my child gets the quality education that she deserves.
How can you help Memphis when you are not originally from the area?
Indeed, I was not born or raised in Memphis. However, I chose to move to my neighborhood, and I want to see my entire community better. We all deserve better than what we are currently getting.
How do you feel about the other candidates?
I am grateful to be running against some of the finest people in our community. I count it a joy to be amongst them. Without a doubt, I applaud the efforts and the years that our current Board member have served. She made good strides in our community. However, it's time for new ideas and a fresh face, and I'm that person.
