She campaigned for election on a platform of increasing services for senior citizens, improved accountability of police by citizens, and workforce training to help recover the economy in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. After winning the November 2021 general election, she became the first Asian American woman to represent the district, along with a wave of previously unrepresented minorities on the City Council. She succeeded fellow Democrat Barry Grodenchik; her term is intended to run for two years instead of the usual four because of planned redistricting.
