Affordable homes + Smart building

Housing is a right. Affordable housing is a right. We have to make smarter, more innovative decisions when it comes to housing. We have to make sure there is less friction in the permitting process. We need to make sure the city and state have the staff in place to make it easier to build in our neighborhoods.

Building up District 41

More housing restoration startups

Grants to encourage more startups that focus on rehabbing existing homes

Speeding up the permit process

Making it easier for developers to build. Reducing frictions to permitting process. Increasing staff for permitting offices. More predictable approval developments that meet zoning laws

I will commit to bringing new programs that encourage building new housing, restoring existing homes, and working with developers to ensure we're building in every community.

How will I put housing first?

We cannot solve Baltimore's housing crisis without protecting the people who already live here. We need both new construction AND improving existing housing stock —a comprehensive approach that creates affordability for current AND future residents.

I will focus on practical, community-driven policies that balance growth and affordability across the city.
