IMAGINE PASADENA.

A Leader Who Listens

I love this city. Like many of us, I have been increasingly troubled by the tone of our national politics in the last several years. We are more interested in building polarized factions than in finding common ground. I realized the best place to start changing the conversation is right here in Pasadena.

I believe that leadership should be about service, not self. I promise that if I am elected, every voice will have a place in our civic dialogue.

I am proud to be endorsed by a broad coalition of individuals and organizations who hold views from every ideological and political perspective. I believe they are backing me in the race because they know I will listen carefully and openly, and they can trust me to make fair, thoughtful decisions.

Community Matters

In this campaign, I am committed to working to ensure housing that is affordable at every income level while also preserving the character of our community, increasing services to our unhoused neighbors so we reduce homelessness, and making Pasadena a leader in the fight against climate change.
