I am passionate about the City of Cypress and the values and characteristics that make it a wonderful place to live, work and play. With my years of involvement within the city, I know the importance of being engaged, listening to the community, and balancing the best interests of the majority of the residents, while respecting the rights of all.

As your City Council Member, I will:

  • Maintain public safety as a top priority by ensuring the Cypress Police Department remains staffed and funded; and that the city continues its strong partnership with Orange County Fire Authority.
  • Use my business experience to make sure Cypress remains fiscally sound, financially healthy and inviting for businesses, while having no new taxes or tax increases.
  • Continue to invest in recreation facilities, provide programs and services for all ages and maintain our excellent infrastructure including the finest roads in Orange County.
  • Be an authentic leader, communicating with facts and the truth.

I am proud to be a 50-year resident of Cypress and will support residents having a voice within their community and electing all their Council Members to lead the city for years to come. I ask for your vote to preserve our values and keep Cypress a great place to live and work.
