With my experience, affordable and accessible early childcare and senior care are my top priorities for the District. As a former Environmental Planner for Caltrans, I am equipped to address affordable planning needs that we need to foster community growth and create policies to address antiquated permitting processes.
Families, Affordability and Livability
- Invest in affordable early childhood care
- Increase home-based child care facilities

- Support renter rights and homeowner accessory dwelling units
Community and Neighborhood Integrity
- Revitalize merchant corridors

Community Safety
- Keep all parks and open space free of drug dealing and graffiti

- Invest in community public safety measures for families and seniors
Climate Jobs and Justice
- Green New Deal for decarbonization of California, green new deal jobs and livable wages.
- More Parks and More green space

- Support banning new fossil-fuel projects and issue no new permits for oil and gas extraction in California by 2030 and support creating a plan for a just and equitable transition that protects workers and communities and creating 2500-feet health and safety buffer zones between fossil-fuel projects and homes and schools.
- Juvenile Justice
- Eliminate schools to prison pipeline.
