WHY I AM RUNNING
As a Councilmember, I have a clear understanding of the challenges that our communities face. From the housing crisis to homelessness, I’ve championed policies aimed at improving the lives of the people I represent. This commitment to public service has been a constant thread in my life, starting from my days as an Eagle Scout to my current job leading a county-wide non-profit. I have fought to build a better community for the people of the San Diego region.
I’ll let my track record speak for itself:
- Championed the first 100% affordable development in La Mesa in decades.
- Saved the La Mesa Farmers Market to help our local economy thrive.
- Made it easier for homeowners to invest in their properties and build equity.
- Expanded our homeless outreach teams to help those in need.
- Led a campaign to transform empty transit agency parking lots into affordable homes.
- Prioritized investments for road repair and safer streets.
Now, I am running for State Assembly to take this work to Sacramento, where we can find real solutions and create a bigger impact by tackling our most pressing challenges.
