Despite being 28 years old, I have a plethora of experience: office staff for a politician, engineer, trainer, teaching assistant, tutor, editor, local volunteer, and technical writer. I have done all this because I am eager to learn and do whatever I can to help others.
I have always been concerned with the truth and fighting to give other people more opportunities. I have used my programming knowledge to analyze transit equity, crime, hiring practices, and more. I support greater democracy and local control, and I am eager to connect more neighborhoods and engage more people in the political process.- More housing people can afford
- A Safer San Francisco
- Transit that works for everyone
My personal passion is public transit — making it work for everyone so we can genuinely reduce the impact of private car carbon emissions. Even in small San Francisco, hundreds of thousands of people regularly drive in spite of our public transit system.
Better, denser housing that is linked up with our transit networks are also key to improving affordability, supporting the economy, and making more homes without destroying more of the environment.
The District 10 supervisor represents a large area. It has many ethnicities, a range of incomes, and a history of being underserved. Building trust with the community and righting past wrongs would draft a blueprint for doing better all over the United States.
I stayed with Seagate throughout my undergraduate and graduate degrees, working as a technician, trainer, engineering specialist, and finally a quality assurance engineer. I left Seagate Technology in 2020 for an opportunity to work with the San Francisco Department of Technology.
I have some experience in politics, having interned in the office of Assemblyman Evan Low, and I have experience working for a government department as a Public Information Officer and technical writer.
