☛ I successfully completed Quincy's first ADA Self Evaluation and Transition Plan in 2020 by soliciting $100k in funds from the state while supporting continued implementation with the Commission on Disabilities and multiple stakeholders.

☛ I increased community engagement in Quincy by over 500% through board and coalition participation, social media outreach, and event organization.
