On June 24, I kicked off my campaign officially at Parker Mill County Park. It was a pleasure to meet and spend time with District 2 voters, friends and family.

Elected officials who came out to support my campaign included District 6 Washtenaw County Commissioner Ricky Jefferson, former Michigan Senator Alma Wheeler Smith, as well as Superior Township Trustee Rhonda McGill.
