This information is provided by the candidate

I am truly proud to call the city of Oakley my home and want to see our community continue to thrive.

I have always had a passion for public service. This passion and interest led me to leave my career in the semiconductor industry to pursue a degree in Political Science. I graduated from San Jose State University with a focus in Public Policy and Administration, and a minor in Business. While attending SJSU I was a Public Policy Intern at the Silicon Valley Council of Nonprofits. I also interned at the Santa Clara Valley Health and Hospital System under the Public Information Officer. I currently work in Accounting for a general contractor.

I am a Bay Area native who grew up in Hayward. My husband and I lived in San Jose for eight years before moving to Oakley. Moving here was one of the best decisions that we have made.

I believe that my extensive experience in both the private and public sectors will be extremely valuable in helping me represent and understand the needs of Oakley citizens. I am very interested in stimulating business in both downtown and other areas of Oakley. I am also looking forward to furthering the community outreach that the city does, in order to get more residents involved in our community.

I look forward to using my skills, experience and knowledge to help the city of Oakley continue to grow.
