Conservative Fiscal Policy

We must get a grip on City spending. Uncontrolled spending and unparalleled borrowing have put us in a financial crisis. The City has cut services, reduced staff, and mortgaged parks to fund a "terribly managed" transportation project. I have the experience and leadership to help manage the City's financial health.

Effective Leadership

Our city needs wise, effective leadership that will recognize the mistakes of the past and make different decisions for our future.

Community Participation

As a Commissioner of the Orange County Human Relations Commission, I worked to help build mutual beneficial relationships and trust within our diverse communities. To resolve our current fiscal crisis and restore our financial stability, Placentia will need the support, understanding, assistance, and trust of our diverse community.
