Since childhood, I have always been concerned with the welfare of others. I have volunteered at my church, distributed food through Project Angel Food and cleaned the beaches through Friends of the Los Angeles River. As a young man I chose to focus my attention on education. I worked as a high school football coach for both Valencia High School and West Ranch High School. I earned my bachelors degree at California State University, Northridge in Political Science and started working as a substitute teacher for both the William S Hart Union High School District and the Anaheim Union High School District. Teaching affords me the opportunity to make a difference in a child’s life but public service allows me to make a difference on a broader scale. I have a passion for politics and government and truly believe that the best way to affect change in our State and Country is through public service. I have volunteered on the Katie Hill campaign for Congress and the Gavin Newsom campaign for Governor while I was in college. Both of those experiences have shown me how local government affects change and aims to protect those in our society who may not be able to protect themselves. It was my experience in these campaigns that made me change my party registration. The Democratic Party does not represent me or my interests. As I have grown older and lived through the COVID-19 pandemic, I have lost faith in many government institutions. I believe power needs to be shifted back to the hands of the people and not the powerful few that I found to be running the Democratic Party. I believe that I can make a positive impact on our country. I am willing and eager to do what it takes to direct our home towards safety, security and prosperity.
Yes!
