Please describe your appreciation for the City of Austin's diverse demographics and geography. | I have lived in several different areas of Austin in my 23 years here. I am very familiar with the diversity throughout Austin and the changes that have happened over time. I have volunteered at underprivileged schools throughout Austin. I know the life and culture that transcends our communities and I fully embrace those differences. |
