I am astoundingly proud to say I am running for trustee in the village I love. I have dedicated my life to helping people and while my professional as well as personal life proves this, I plan to make the biggest uplifting changes in the village we all reside in. I believe in this village and I know that I can bring new innovative concepts to mix with the knowhow [sic] and experience of the board to make an improved park forest [sic]. These changes are for all residents from the population that have built this village to the children we are building a future for. I have the capability to communicate and understand people from all walks of life to make a better park forest [sic] for all residents. Park Forest has a huge population of youth that are looking to us to make the decisions that set examples of right that they can follow to a better future. I have been around to see Park Forest from when there was a thriving mall downtown to the mall turning into a parking lot. I have invested my heart, time, and energy into this village for the betterment and wellbeing of all of my fellow residents. I am interested in helping reconstruct the village to be more affordable for residents while improving services and livelihood of all residents. Some don’t think this is possible but when you put the power of strong minds together with a common yet powerful goal all change is possible. Believe in me as I believe in this village so we can live, grow, and discover a better park forest [sic] together.
