Expand all | Collapse all

I’m a concerned citizen, father and small business owner looking to give back to our community. Raised in Mexico, I came to California as a teenager with my family seeking a better life and with the American Dream in mind. My parents taught me the value of hard work, education, and service. I picked strawberries, tomatoes, potatoes, and shined shoes until I saved up enough to start my own business. I achieved the American Dream and I want to help others create a better life.
  • California is no longer affordable. Prices for homes, rent, and everyday goods like gas and groceries are skyrocketing. Sacramento politicians don’t feel the impact of their decisions – they only enjoy the benefits given to them by the special interests that influenced their votes. It’s time to change Sacramento and restore California to a safe and affordable state.
  • As a resident and business owner in Riverside County, I’ve fought to help others and create jobs. Community leaders, business owners, and students tell me about the limited opportunities they face.
  • It is time to take action and fight for our Values, Family, Parental Rights, Work on the Homelessness Problems, Reduce Crime for Safer Communities, and Repeal Gas and Property Tax.
Public Safety. Lower Taxes. Homelessness. Better Education. Affordable Housing. Parental Rights.
I have been through the process working hard and helping people. I am educated and accomplished the american dream
Represent the public’s best interest with fairness and not with non sense laws.
I want to make history representing and helping the people.
Getting taxes a lot as a business owner
I believe that a person should be educated in every aspect to the benefit of the people.
Yes. Team work is very important and brainstorming is a great idea for the benefit of the people
Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, District Attorney Mike Hestrin, County Supervisor Kevin Jeffries, Riverside Sheriffs Association, former California Senator Jeff Stone, Moreno Valley Council Ed Delgado, EMWD Dave Slawson, many more.
Committees that help represent the constituents.
We definitely need to make government accountable for their actions and that is why we need transparency.
