Why are you running?: 

I am running for Supervisor to make Tulare County a better, safer place. Through my experience working as a part of a family run business and my accounting background, I know the value of hard work and how to stretch a dollar. One of my greatest strengths is my ability to work with people and develop relationships. I have the ability, energy, education and experience to effectively represent you on the Board. I will focus on making our community safer by working closely with law enforcement; improving our roads through the efficient use of Measure ‘R’ funds; securing a reliable water supply; and ensuring that our tax dollars are well spent. My door is always open. My phone number is in the book. I’ve met with hundreds of people since this campaign began, and I’ll continue to do so after the election.
