About Me

I’m Adil Ahmed. I’m a 38-year old father of 2 children born in HoCo, husband to a remarkable woman who leads DEI initiatives in public schools across the country, Columbia homeowner who thinks critically about how my taxes are spent, and I’m running for Howard County’s Democratic Central Committee because I have the political and governmental experience to grow the party and affect good governance.
