COMMITTEE TO ELECT PAZ

I was born in Boston, raised in Waltham, and I've spent much of my life across this district. I've lived in Woburn, played soccer in Arlington, and made monthly trips to Malden's Department of Education as a student activist. This district isn't just where I campaign; this district is where my life took root, where I've built relationships, and where I continue to show up. I've dedicated my life to fight for working people – tutoring students, representing union workers, organizing for renters' rights, advocating for legislative policy to protect immigrants and refugees, and defending residents of Waltham from ICE. I hold a degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics. I was elected to the Waltham City Council, where, for two terms, I worked to ensure that city government served working families, not just the well-connected. Outside of elected office, I've focused on building durable coalitions — I founded Fuerza Waltham and helped support LUCE, a statewide emergency hotline for ICE raids.
