This information is provided by the candidate

I bring fifteen years of experience prosecuting some of the most difficult cases in the county and doing so in an ethical and fair manner, seeking justice more than just convictions. In my endorsement from the San Jose Mercury News, they described me as "well qualified with a sterling record of prosecutorial skill and personal integrity." This background of experience and integrity will help me enforce the law and lead the DA's office. Our county deserves a DA who lives up to the ethical standards of the community. With integrity, hard work, and humility, I will bring public trust and confidence back to the DA's office.

. . . .
