Dear Dorchester,

With a week to go before the Final Election, I wanted to take a moment to say Thank You. It has been a privilege and an honor to get know so many Dorchester residents on the campaign trail. After I became the Birst announced At-­‐Large candidate in December 2012, you welcomed me to the neighborhood – civic associations and ward committee meetings, First Soup at Ashmonticello, the Chili Cook-­‐Off. After the tragedy of Marathon Monday struck far too close to home, you showed the entire city and the world what it means to be Boston Strong and Dorchester Strong. You kicked off a long campaign summer with the longest parade in the city on hottest Dorchester Day I could remember, followed by block parties, little league games, and kind offers of water and lemonade for our volunteers knocking on doors.

As summer turned to fall, the faces in Dorchester became more familiar and the stories even more personal. I am in this race for so much of what I see in Dorchester – to connect families and neighborhoods with Boston’s resources. As the daughter of immigrants, I am a hard worker devoted to family. When my mother began to struggle with mental illness six years ago, I became primary caretaker for her and my two younger sisters. I have run a family business and been a legal guardian in the Boston Public Schools. I know how important it is to have a city government that is accessible, responsive, and focused on residents. I have also worked inside City Hall and know that great ideas and energy in city government can make a big difference. I humbly ask for 1 of your 4 votes for City Council At-­Large in the Final Election this Tuesday, November 5th. Since Binishing in the top four in the Preliminary, I have been working even harder. It would be an honor to play a role in strengthening families and communities across Boston, to be another strong voice for Dorchester. Thank you.
