thank you!
Most Campaigns End on Election Night.
Ours Didn’t.
We started with no machine. No political dynasty. Just a belief: that a young, working-class kid from Boynton Beach could look power in the eye — and challenge it.
And we did.
We went up against a well-funded incumbent backed by South Florida’s most powerful political firm… and came within inches. 42%. In our first race. With mostly small-dollar donations and the hearts of everyday people behind us.
That doesn’t happen here. Until now.
This campaign was never just about one election — it was about building something real. We raised $45,000. We built a coalition that crossed generations and backgrounds. And we made history: I became the first first-time candidate ever endorsed by the Florida Democratic Party. Out of hundreds of races, they only endorsed four. We were one of them.
We also earned the support of:
Mayor Ty Penserga
Rep. Joe Casello
Rep. Debra Tendrich
Sun Sentinel
Palm Beach Post
AFL-CIO
SEIU
Equality Florida
PBCHRC
Run For Something
Democratic Municipal Officials
Classroom Teachers Association
Political veterans are still talking about what we pulled off. And nearly every day, someone stops me to say they voted for me — and to tell me not to stop.
We didn’t win. But we moved something.
We cracked the system open. We made people feel seen. And we proved that even in the heart of Florida — hope still wins hearts.
So thank you. To everyone who believed.
We’re not done.
We’re just getting started.
