Tell us about yourself.

Hi my name is Sol (He/Him). I’m a current freshman from Austin, Texas. I’m a psychology major and am planning on double majoring in Ethnic Studies.

What are the three key issues that you've noticed on campus that you hope to improve for students as an elected official?
Please list each issue and briefly explain how you hope to improve it.

I would like to help support students of color on campus as they navigate through attending a PWI. I would implement harm reduction programs that would offer free drug testing no questions asked and would focus on supporting and uplifting cultural groups and organizations on campus.

Why are you running?

I am running as a queer disabled student of color. I believe that ASUO has the potential to serve and uplift marginalized students and communities in a way that the university currently fails to.
