Next generation, Opportunity, Voiceand Innovation.
I’m proud to be running for Novi City Council. My campaign is built on the belief that it’s time for action over words—and results you can see.
As I thought about what I want this campaign—and this city—to stand for, I kept coming back to the name itself: NOVI. It’s more than just four letters. It’s a roadmap. It’s a set of values that are the backbone of my campaign.
We have to think beyond the present and build for the future. That means listening to the NEXT GENERATION—asking them what kind of city they want to grow up in. It also means creating pathways for first-time homebuyers, supporting entrepreneurs, and ensuring new businesses feel welcome and empowered to plant their roots right here in Novi. We can’t afford to make decisions in a vacuum—we need to be thinking about legacy, sustainability, and how we prepare the next generation to lead.

Too often, residents feel like their concerns are heard—but not acted upon. I believe in open communication, transparency, and a leadership style that is present, approachable, and accountable. Your VOICE shouldn’t just matter during election season—it should help shape the future of our city, every single day. I will be a councilmember who listens actively and advocates fiercely for the people I serve. And I’ll make sure that staying informed about what’s happening in our local government is easy and accessible, even if you can’t make it to a council meeting. Your voice matters—and I’ll make sure it’s heard.
Novi is home to one of the most diverse populations in the state—and that’s one of our greatest strengths. But diversity on paper isn’t enough. We need to be intentional about creating spaces and moments where cultures connect, where voices come together, and where differences are not just accepted but celebrated. Whether it’s through cultural events, language accessibility, or community forums, we must foster real inclusiveness and open the door to OPPORTUNITYfor everyone.
Novi is growing—but we have to grow smart. That means protecting our green spaces, enhancing sidewalks, investing in bike paths, and making sure that as we evolve, we’re not losing the charm, safety, and beauty that make this city special. We should be looking at ways to embrace technology, improve infrastructure, and build an environment that supports both economic development and quality of life. INNOVATION is not just about tech—it’s about thinking differently and planning boldly. I’ll make sure our city grows in a way that honors its character and secures its future.
