As a mother and immigrant whose life was transformed by education, I believe every child deserves that same chance. I’ll fight to empower parents, strengthen local schools, invest in trades and colleges, and ensure that education opens doors for every child.

As a mother, an immigrant, and someone whose own journey was made possible by access to learning, I know that education is not just a policy issue. It’s a promise—that every child, no matter their background or ZIP code, will have the tools to thrive.
That means giving local communities the power to shape their schools. It means making curriculum transparent and engaging parents as partners in their child’s future. It means investing in technical education, community colleges, and the skilled trades so that every student has a path to success.
Washington’s 8th District is home to hardworking families who value education not only as a personal good, but as a public trust. In Congress, I will work to make sure federal policy respects the autonomy of our local districts, the diversity of our communities, and the aspirations of our children.
