Current Issues
As a father of three young children, I believe that our community must continue to invest in public safety. Our town is facing increasing financial pressures on the budget to fund essential services. We need to begin planning today for the future.
Why I am Running
Gilroy has a bright future but our city is facing some challenges. I have the experience needed to keep our momentum and improve the quality of life for residents and businesses. I am deeply committed to our community and I am capable of making tough decisions.
