Thanks to all who supported my candidacy!

I enjoyed the campaign very much, and made wonderful new friendships along the way.  Though I didn’t make it to Augusta this year, I am continuing with community organizing work in Portland and throughout the state.  Feel free to check back to my website periodically to keep up-to-date with my work.  Thanks again, and I hope to see you soon!
