Community Leader

The current one-size-fits-all approach to public policy has proven ineffective, resulting in detrimental consequences for our community. Our public systems are falling short in supporting the most vulnerable members, and local policies are adversely affecting children, families, residents, and businesses alike. It is imperative that we strive to reintroduce pragmatic solutions to address our community's most pressing social issues. Together, we can implement policies that are tailored to the unique needs of our diverse population, fostering a more inclusive and thriving community for all.

Advocate

I believe that the foundation for a thriving San Francisco starts within our neighborhoods. Throughout my career, I have committed myself to enhancing the safety of our community, ensuring accountability among residents and government, and championing practical policies that foster recovery, individuality, and fairness.
