Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

As a Deputy District Attorney who fights every day for victims of crime, I have successfully prosecuted hundreds of felony criminal cases. I currently serve as San Bernardino County's Lead Deputy DA for the prosecution of Gangs and Career Criminals.

Too often, I see justice being denied in our courtrooms. That's why I ask for your vote to serve as Superior Court Judge.

I am dedicated to protecting and serving our communities. My experience includes:

• Military Veteran - Captain in the United States Air Force Reserve. Certified as Trial and Defense Legal Counsel under the Uniform Code of Military Justice. • Lead Deputy District Attorney - Managing a team of 6 criminal prosecutors. • Courtroom Experience - 40 jury trials, including murder and attempted murder.

As your Judge, I will bring an unwavering commitment to integrity and fairness to the courtroom. My service as both a Criminal Prosecutor and a Military Court Defense Counsel will help to ensure that all parties receive a fair trial in criminal cases.

I believe that crime victims deserve to have their voices heard and that our criminal justice system should treat everyone equally. I also believe that punishments should fit the crime-especially for criminals convicted of violent offenses.
