An Experienced Leader
Why I am running
I continue to be motivated to serve my community and country. I believe the people demand and our government needs strong, smart, and objective leadership. I believe I am that type of candidate.
I was a postdoc at Lawrence Livermore National Lab in the late 90’s, but returned to the labs permanently in 2010 and was amazed at the transformation of downtown. I have been actively involved in our community, including being a Livermore Airport Commissioner, Head Coach for Granada’s JV girls lacrosse team and previously Livermore Phantoms Lacrosse, and an active volunteer at the former Charter School. I raised my two amazing daughters here, from elementary through high school, where they have thrived. Livermore continues to be a wonderful place to live and prosper.
Professionally, I have been a Naval Officer and patriot serving my country, a leader of clean energy projects worldwide for a decade, a scientist and policy researcher working for the national labs, and an entrepreneur and business owner. I now want to serve the City of Livermore as Council Member for District 3 to maintain the great aspects of living in Livermore that we all enjoy, and to avoid the pitfalls that have challenged other Bay Area cities.
A vote for me is a vote for strong and experienced leadership, smart housing development while maintaining our open spaces, clean energy development, maintaining public safety, fiscal prudence, and pushing for opportunities to leverage our world-class local technical labor force.
