As a long time business owner and a Director of the Chula Vista Chamber of Commerce, I am committed to bringing positive change to our city. We need to help support small business recovery, from the economic effects of the pandemic, as well as attract new businesses that enhance our community: new children activities, healthcare, nice new restaurants & entertainment options and a four year University that gives our children a better future and our community more local jobs.
This smart, planned economic development also ensures that we will always properly fund police, fire and infrastructure throughout the city. My father-in-law is a retired Chula Vista Police Sergeant and we have multiple fire fighter friends, so we understand their sacrifice. Safety and prevention are crucial; this is why I sit on the Measure A Oversight Committee, which not only helps fund police and fire, but makes sure we are using these tax dollars wisely.
For more information go to www.CromerForCityCouncil.com- Safety and Prevention are Crucial: This is why I sit on the Measure A Oversight Committee, which not only helps fully fund police and fire, but makes sure we are using these tax dollars wisely. My father-in-law is a retired Chula Vista Police Sergeant and I have multiple fire fighter friends, so I understand their commitment and sacrifice and support them completely. We have a shortage of qualified candidates for police, fire and EMTs throughout the state, so we need to make sure we are paying them well and attracting the best candidates to our city.
- Strong Business Environment: As a long time Business Owner and a Director of the Chula Vista Chamber of Commerce, I am committed to bringing positive economic change to our city. We need to help support small business recovery, from the economic effects of the pandemic, as well as attract new businesses that enhance our community: new children activities, healthcare, nice new restaurants & entertainment options and a four year University that gives our children a better future and our community more local jobs. We also need to make sure we have strong contracts in place, so we are never held hostage again by a city service provider, like whole trash debacle.
- Better Chula Vista: I am a hard worker that can bring people together to achieve results. I learned my collaborative approach through my leadership education at the University of San Diego and also working for the Hotel Del Coronado, as well as the Marriott Corporation. At the Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina, I served as the Guest Relations Manager and Total Quality Management Chair. Not only did I oversee a 1,355 room hotel at night, I was in charge of our continuous improvement process for problems resolved and reducing problems experience. In this role I also trained over 1,000 employees on guest satisfaction, reducing problems and improving processes. All things that I think we all can agree the city desperately needs.
