Slogan: Making City Hall responsive to our city’s changing needs

Statement: I was the Student Body President of Encinal High School in the Spring of 1984 when I helped bring the first jet (A-4 Skyhawk) onto the front lawn of Encinal. Over the years, I have had the honor of helping our community including as a current Councilmember, current AUSD-City Council Sub-Committee member, former Economic Development Commissioner, and past military base closure commission member.
• I am running for re-election to continue to implement the kind of changes that strengthen our city’s quality of life, such as sending medical \ mental health professionals instead of the police in response to certain non-violent 911 calls (https://bit.ly/3JDj7LV).
• Because I am a product of AUSD (Paden Elementary School, Chipman Middle School, and Encinal High School), I am running for re-election to have City Hall continue partnering with the school district on matters such as mental health funding (https://bit.ly/3zNP67t).
• I will continue to guard against over-building given our traffic-handling constraints (e.g. Posey Tube, Island Drive, and Park Street Bridge).

I am an urban planner with a master’s degree in City Planning from UC Berkeley, where I also earned my BA degree. Thank you for your consideration. www.daysog.com/
