I want to take a proactive and visible role in helping as well as representing my community. I want to actively try to enhance the town I've grown up in, which includes meeting with local officials, volunteering, and listening to the concerns of citizens. I feel my background in healthcare and the military can contribute to the progressive and community-centered nature of the Board and Commission. I enjoy engaging in conversation and listening to people of various backgrounds. *
I feel my acquired skills in both healthcare and the military reserve give me a unique perspective. I also pride myself on my professionalism, work ethic, and compassion. I feel that I can contribute greatly to the Board. I also recognize that I'm limited in my experience as far as City Council and local politics go. However, I'm also very eager to learn as much as I can. I'm not just content simply reading local news in SSF or San Mateo County. I want to be actively involved as well as visible in my community. *
I envision advancements and growth in the public schooling, public parks, recreation, and library system. I want South San Francisco to be in the forefront in growth and innovation in San Mateo County. I also want to support family owned businesses, and let them know that they're well supported. *
