Santa Clara was honored as an All-American City in 2001
I believe we can achieve that recognition once more
LET’s restore Public Trust and Professionalism in City Council
I’m committed to restoring public trust in our City Council by bringing professionalism and integrity to our local government. With my leadership background, I will advocate for an ethics council and have signed the ethics pledge. I’ll treat fellow members and staff with dignity, respecting their contributions while holding them accountable to the highest standards of integrity and service for Santa Clara.
let’s Support Local Families and Workers
As an anthropologist and ally of labor, I’m committed to supporting local families through housing initiatives and responsible development. I’ll champion projects like the Agrihood in District 6, combining affordable housing with urban agriculture, and advocate for local hiring and fair wages in new developments.
Let’s develop for Sustainable Growth
Our city’s growth should benefit all neighborhoods. I’ll budget for sustainable development, supporting Northside infrastructure improvements and revitalizing downtown with pedestrian-friendly streetscapes, public art, and small business incentives. I’ll also work with the university to better connect the campus to our downtown community.
let’s bring back Fiscal Transparency and Prioritize our city
I believe in fiscal transparency and ensuring our city’s budget reflects the needs of residents over corporate interests. My priority is always what’s best for Santa Clara, including advocating fiercely for public safety staffing and holding businesses accountable for honest reporting on costs, especially for upcoming global events
