I am a retired university professor with over 30 years experience. I have a PhD in Economics, from the University of California, Davis. I also hold a Masters in Public Health from the University of California, Berkeley. I taught epidemiology and bio stats at medical schools. I have taught nationally and internationally. I am very passionate about education and the economy, two of my core issues. At the college/university level, I saw first hand how many students were not prepared for the college curriculum. I have policies to proposed to improve the K-12 educational system.
I have 20 years civil service experience in California. I worked my way up to management. Thereafter, I decided to continue my education.
I have a fresh perspective on the issues that impact my district. When elected, I plan to hit the ground running with my education, knowledge and experience. I will not be beholden to any donors or special interest groups. My constituents are my first and only priority.- Education - through giving parents the rights to choose how the educational dollars for their children are spent.
- Economy - putting into place legislation to reduce the gas tax and other prohibitive measure which stagnates our economy.
- Crime reduction - through legislation, returning to policies that keep our neighborhoods safe and enforcing laws that keep our communities safe.
Requiring photo identification to vote. One ballot, one vote for each legally registered individual. Making sure that all legal votes are counted within a reasonably allotted time frame. Mail in ballots for the infirmed or those on active military duty only. Anyone else requesting a mail-in ballot, will have to provide a valid reason why an absentee/mail in ballot is being requested. The voters rolls should be routinely purged of deceased individuals or individuals who no longer reside at the listed address.
There are so many stories and great lessons in this tome. I enjoy different translations and like to compare them to see if there are any significant differences and how both can be resolved. I read and study additional books such as "Antiquities" by Josephus and "On First Principles" by Origen. This supplemental material helps me achieve greater understanding for my life choices and actions. The compassion shown and the strictures on helping the poor and hungry. Before COVID lockdowns, my church would feel the homeless and actually send out vans to given them rides and then take them back tor to wherever they needed to go. We provided a clothes closet if they needed additional clothing. As a practicing Christian, this book guides my daily life and keeps me on the path to become a better person.
