Thank you for electing and trusting me to represent you on the school board for the past nine years. Like you, I have a vested interest in the education of our children. My expectations are high and I will continue to support:

  • basic reading and mathematics skills,
  • advanced placement curriculum,
  • safe schools,
  • fiscal responsibility.

In an effort to reduce overcrowding, I have supported the construction of a new junior high/high school in Calimesa, Meadow Creek Elementary School and additions to Yucaipa High School and other campuses.

Having lived here for 35 years, I am available, willing to listen, and consider all viewpoints before making a decision. I have the best interest of the student as my guiding principle.

Serving as President of the School Board, operating my own Civil Engineering business for 20 years, and being Calimesa's City Engineer has prepared me to lead the District. Other community involvement includes Automobile Club (AAA) Advisory Board Member, CRYROP Board Member, co-chair of the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life, and active with Yucaipa's Budget Development Committee and Little League.

I will work hard to earn and keep your trust and continue improving our schools. Your continued support is appreciated.
