Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

For 19 years, I’ve served the community I love—including 11 years on City Council (and three-time Mayor) and the last four years as a County Supervisor.

As elected leaders, our first priority is to our residents and the local businesses that provide our economic backbone. There will always be competing pressures for resources and priorities, but I believe—and my record demonstrates—that through respect, listening, understanding, experience, and courage, we can provide for our residents, protect our planet, and continue to build community resilience.

I will continue to prioritize affordability, sustainability, and equity, focus on solutions that matter in day-to-day life, and fight for North Bay residents and communities in Sacramento.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

My primary commitment is to supporting affordable, healthy, safe communities—for residents and local businesses.
