My journey is deeply rooted in the ethical values instilled by my immigrant parents who left corrupt and oppressive governments in Nicaragua and Cuba to build a better life here in California. As a proud native of San Francisco and a resident of Contra Costa County for over three decades, I am deeply connected to the diverse communities that make up our district. The district includes over half of Contra Costa County residents in Concord, Pleasant Hill, Martinez, Pittsburg, Antioch, Brentwood, Clayton and other unincorporated areas.
Professionally, I am a bilingual self-employed real estate professional with a degree in legal studies. As a single mother of four adult sons, including autistic twins, I understand the importance of compassion, resilience, and determination in facing life's challenges.
My personal experiences have shaped my perspective and drive to advocate for policies that support families like mine, and I am committed to being a voice for all members of our community.
I am dedicated to making tough decisions to improve our quality of life by addressing our increased crime, taxes and cost of living that continues to drive people and business away. I will represent you with fairness, transparency, and a strong work ethic on all issues ensuring that the voices of our community are heard and valued.- PUBLIC SAFETY - a comprehensive approach to stopping low level crime and keeping dangerous criminals off the streets by mandating prosecution, sentencing, and rehabilitation in any reform measure. I support the funding of police and more police services.
- ECONOMY - I support returning California to "golden state" status by attracting new business and the jobs they provide, while controlling state the deficit, high inflation, and taxes.
- HOUSING - housing affordability is a huge issue. Housing inventory must be increased to ensure affordability.
You're pointless.
