I am running for La Mesa City Council because our community, like the ocean, thrives when we uplift and support one another. As a single mother, renter, cultural practitioner, and education advocate, I know the struggles of working families, students, and small businesses. I’ve felt the pull of rising costs, the uncertainty of shifting tides, and the need for leadership that listens.
The ocean has always been a teacher. Stand at the shore, and you’ll see how each wave carries stories—of resilience, change, and connection. The water doesn’t discriminate; it embraces all who enter, reminding us that we are stronger when we move together.
La Mesa deserves leadership that reflects its people—leaders who don’t just watch from the shore but dive in, ready to navigate challenges with bold solutions. Together, we can build an inclusive, affordable, and thriving La Mesa—where everyone has the opportunity to rise with the tide.
Educating families on how to navigate through the proper public assistance options for housing, and fighting for renters' rights.
Reinforce financial assistance for youth mentorship programs, education, and creative spaces.
Identify existing programs and strengthen community outreach and improve quality of life.
