A thriving community needs equitable access to economic opportunity. I will work to support inclusive workforce development and help local businesses succeed.

• Expand access to resources and opportunities for Black, Latinx, Indigenous, and other historically underserved voices.
• Provide business support and mentoring, particularly to immigrant, BIPOC, and low-income entrepreneurs. 
• Reduce barriers for small businesses to access funds, permits, licenses, and other resources. 
• Build a prosperous local economy that allows Somerville to achieve its goal of "an inclusive, equitable city where we can all thrive together.”
