The Northeast San Fernando Valley has been my home for 30 years. In that time, I’ve seen a lot of change. The General Motors Plant where my father and grandfather once worked closed, eliminating thousands quality jobs that fueled our economy. Our infrastructure is crumbling and hard working families struggle to maintain a decent quality of life, while our local elected officials play an expensive game of political musical chairs. Our community deserves better!

That is why I have decided to run to represent the 7th Council District of the City of Los Angeles. As the Council member for the 7th District, I will bring a deep passion for community service to the office and will work tirelessly to create a city government that serves needs of the citizens of Los Angeles, not to launch political careers.

With a unique blend of experience in city government, public education and the private sector; I will bring balanced, independent and creative leadership to the Los Angeles City Council.

I will work to create a local economy that attracts businesses to make long-term investments in our community and creates quality jobs. I will collaborate with my colleagues and the private sector to ensure our kids are afforded opportunities outside of their classrooms and make sure our tax dollars are not squandered, but maximized to deliver the best city services for our neighborhoods and businesses.

The Northeast San Fernando Valley is the unknown jewel of this city, home to many families, like my own, that want to have safe, healthy neighborhoods in which to raise their children. It can be the incubator of innovation and represent all that our city’s future holds. With the right leadership, we can fulfill this community’s potential. Please join me in moving our city forward by supporting my candidacy.

Thank you for taking the time to consider supporting my campaign, I look forward to working with you to make Los Angeles a better place to live and work.
