Candidate for LA City Council, District 5                                               March 3, 2009 Primary Election
Welcome to my campaign website!

Here you will find a summary of my plans for being a responsive leader for the 5th District, events you can attend to get involved, as well as a list of my accomplishments. You will find press clips and other update materials chronicling my involvement in our district (search under “In The News”). I invite you to browse the site to learn why so many of your neighbors and community leaders are committed to my race!

Everyday people are asking me why I want to run for city council.  Many believe serving as a councilmember is a thankless job plagued with problems that can never really be resolved... but this is not how I view the opportunity. I want to be a strong advocate for our community. I believe safety is of the utmost importance for the city. I view the job of councilperson as a chance to initiate policy that will enhance the lives of individuals and their families.  I see applying my business acumen to foster a healthy commerce climate so that a small or large company can flourish and invest in our city.  I see working with school facilities, in cooperation with students and parents. I see bringing people together.

The most valuable skill I have learned in my career is the ability to listen. Being responsive and sensitive to how passionate people feel toward their communities is a trait necessary to succeed in representing you. I have always taken the time to hear what people want and need.  I intend to be the most responsive public servant possible so that your voice is heard. The 5th district deserves a leader who is balanced and battle tested.

If you have a question about my campaign that is not addressed on my site: I want to hear from you. What is it that you believe is the most pressing issue in our district? What’s on your mind?
