Key Priorities

Investing in Public Education

Strong public education is the foundation of a thriving community life and strong economic growth—attracting businesses, creating jobs, and strengthening our future.
Every child deserves access to high-quality public schools and a clear pathway to employable skills for their future.
Mona (a volunteer teacher herself) will advocate for our schools and community colleges, including well-paid teachers and well-equipped classrooms that will benefit us all.

Listening and Innovating

AI and smart technologies promise major benefits but they are not without risks.
County services and policies should be geared towards serving the most people possible, and building a stronger, happier, and more productive community for us all.
Mona will help Wake County adopt smart, responsible technologies, to improve county services while also prioritizing the protection of our privacy.

Improving Quality of Life for Everyone

County services are often siloed and don’t always serve residents most efficiently or effectively.
Every resident deserves seamless access to critical services, such as housing, healthcare, public safety, and public transit.
Mona will apply data-driven insights to create policies that enhance these services and better align them with the needs of our communities.
