I am a proud native of Chicago, born and raised on the city’s Southside; a leader in my family as a husband, father, and son, as volunteer in my community, on the Village of Flossmoor Community Relations Commission, and in my workplace as the Chief of Investigations for the Law Office of the Cook County Public Defenders. My goal is to have people engage in tough conversations that creates a “Change” in how we relate to one another by promoting a level of respect and understanding for all.
