My career includes public service as a university administrator and an elected water district director. For 13 years, I’ve served West Chula Vista on the Sweetwater Authority where I’ve focused on providing safe and affordable drinking water for residents.
Our students deserve the best opportunities. As an administrator at SDSU, I have worked on the Compact For Success guaranteed admissions program for Chula Vista high school students.
Home prices are skyrocketing. As President of a local nonprofit, I advocate for fair housing and affordable options. I will expand services for unhoused people and housing options for young adults, working families and seniors.
Public safety is a top priority. I will partner with law enforcement, social agencies and the community to address the root causes of crime – and ensure Measure A sales tax dollars go toward hiring officers.
Moving Chula Vista forward, my housing, education and local government experience will be critical to serving you at City Hall.
