Summary
The reasons I would like to serve on the Human Rights Commission are varied. I believe in universality in our city, all citizens have rights under our laws, all human rights are equal, and we are to enjoy theses basic human rights without discrimination. I have lived my entire life by these principles and my record stands by itself. My goal is to work as a team to make Muncie a better place to live. Proven ability to foster relationships and mentor as needed.
