What fuels me?
I'm passionate about closing the race and gender wealth gap. Class struggles are society's biggest blindspot. I know first-hand that when you don't have much money, it governs every decision you make, including the food you can afford to eat to where you can afford to live, whether you should go to the doctor, and which dreams you can afford to pursue. For me, closing the wealth gap is about giving people the freedom to unleash their full potential and fully impact society for the better.
