This information is provided by the candidate

I have a passion for community service and a track record of success and achievement in my service whether it be as a School Board Member, a Non-Profit Board Member, a business owner or Chair of the Chamber of Commerce. The Palo Alto City Council needs new leadership and vision. If elected I want to build a shared vision for Palo Alto with clear goals and then lead us, passionately and directly, to implementation. I want to build a more coherent financial model that recognizes the current political and fiscal realities and I want to build housing so that those who work in Palo Alto have a chance to live in Palo Alto. But, above all, I want to restore timely, passionate, and real leadership to the city.
