I am running for the 43rd Assembly District because I care deeply about the place where I've grown up, gone to school, where I live, work and have served for almost a decade as Glendale's elected City Clerk. Courtney and I are proud to call the 43rd our home and are raising our family here.

The issues that face our region are as diverse as the district itself. We need someone in Sacramento who understands the issues and can offer common sense solutions. I bring solid experience, a track record of public service and an understanding of the needs of this community. My work over the last decade as an executive manager and an elected official working full time to provide citizens public access to government has given me a deep understanding of the challenges facing cities in our region. I know how to bring our community together, represent our needs and advocate for our collective interests in Sacramento. This perspective will be important as our State moves forward, building upon the work of our leadership in Sacramento and ensuring that we continue to grow and expand opportunities for all Californians.

I look forward to your support and joining together in making democracy work for all of our citizens.
