Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Washington spent $6.75 trillion last year while you struggle to afford rent. We're paying $882 billion annually just on interest and increasing; We're spending the future wealth of our children to line the pockets of corporate greed. I'm running to bring radical transparency to every dollar spent. As a Marine in Iraq, I learned complacency kills, and we've become complacent. Your representative should answer to you, the people. I'll publish every meeting, every donor, every vote explanation online. No backroom deals. No corporate PAC money. Just results you can verify. I want to make your goals, my goals.We live in the innovation and engineering capital of the world and you can't afford a home. That's not a market failure; it's a political failure. I'll create innovation zones for technology, manufacturing, and energy to generate high-paying jobs right here. We'll streamline regulations that have kept California's opportunity artificially constrained, and driving costs through the roof. The AI revolution is here; we need to train our young people to master it instead of fearing it. From aerospace to autonomous systems, the South Bay should be minting millionaires, not exporting talent. Let's turn abundance from a buzzword into your reality. Let's dream big.Healthcare shouldn't bankrupt you or chain you to a job you hate. The current system is designed by insurance companies and hospital monopolies to extract maximum profit while giving you minimum choice. I want portable health savings accounts that follow you anywhere, cross-state competition to break monopolies, and transparency in pricing so you actually know what procedures cost before getting billed. We were promised you could pick your doctor based on quality and cost, now you get a narrow network your employer or State chose. Let's unleash competition and choice so healthcare works for families, not shareholders. Real freedom means healthcare you control.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Government accountability that answers to the people, not PACs and lobbyists. We pay $882 billion yearly on debt interest with zero transparency. Has your life improved with almost a trillion in annual debt payments? You deserve a representative who actually represents you. Unleash the AI and engineering minds of the South Bay to drive innovation. We're America's engineering engine - let's unlock opportunities for our young people, not cage great ideas out of fear. Smart safeguards yes, bureaucratic paralysis that hands dominance to our adversaries, no. Trust Americans to create abundance and give them the tools to build. Trust the American people with choice whether that's housing, healthcare, or education.
