Introducing Stephanie
Citizen Servant
After graduating with a BA in Broadcast Communications from Texas Southern University, I moved to Aurora, Colorado. I have lived and raised my family in Aurora's Eastridge community for over 25 years. I'm a wife, mother, grandmother, small business owner, and President of the Aurora Cultural Artst District. As such, I've witnessed our community thrive and grow. Now Aurora is at a crossroad.
My concern has grown for the future of our community. With crime and the cost of living escalating, our attention to making the future of Aurora safe and economically vibrant is more important than ever. With your help, we can make a difference.
Community Issues
My campaign focuses on three top priorities and issues. They are all critical to the health and welfare of the city of Aurora and its citizens. To create the needed changes requires a city council dedicated to and focused on assuring the implementation of solutions that work. I will be a catalyst for that dedication and focus.
Safe Communities
Affordable Living
In Aurora, the same one-bedroom apartment that cost $800 two years ago is now over $1500. Our state legislature persists on passing bills that increase our cost of living and make Colorado a more difficult place to live and creates and imperative for the Aurora City Council to swiftly implement laws that help make our city become one of the most affordable large cities in the United States.
Our future demands an affordable Colorado and Aurora can lead the charge in that effort.
Economic Growth
