I am Akbar ali
A son of Gwinnett County, a proud product of its public schools, and someone who believes that community is the way real progress gets made.
From serving as Gwinnett County Democratic Party’s First Vice Chair, to organizing local campaigns as your neighbor, and leading pro-choice student marches as an advocate for our future, my work has always functioned on one core belief:
LEADERSHIP IS NOT ABOUT TITLES, IT’S ABOUT THOSE AROUND YOU
I took this belief to the Gwinnett County Citizens Transit Advisory Board, where I had the honor of serving and advocating for stronger public transportation that meets the real needs of working families.
While holding a bachelor’s degree from Kennesaw State University in political science and public relations, I also am a young entrepreneur. Knowing the value of hard work, I was able to launch and run a successful business that I begun at age 20. I know what it means to build something from the ground up, and I take that principle everywhere I go.
WHY I Am RUNNING
I’m running because I know what this community is about, its full of talent, full of drive, and full of potential that needs to be protected. I’m running for the streets I grew up in, the families that work hard stay here, and those that look like me, but can’t run because they were detained, deported, and silenced.
This campaign is not about me, it’s about us, about bringing our neighborhood’s voices to the State House, and about making sure everyone regardless of background feels seen, heard, and represented. You deserve a representative who shows up to where you are, takes note of what you need, and puts you above politics every single time.
