Candidate for CA, 23rd Congressional District
I am running because I believe in a future where every voice counts and every citizen has the opportunity to thrive. My commitment to public service comes from a deep conviction that our government must work for everyone, not just the privileged few. By uniting communities and advocating for progressive change, I aim to create a fairer, more inclusive society where all of us can prosper together.

The Democratic National Committee’s Local Listeners program is built around a simple idea: Democrats are stronger when they listen first. The program trains volunteers and organizers to have real, relationship-based conversations—especially in communities that often feel ignored—so local concerns, not assumptions, shape messaging and outreach. Instead of leading with talking points, Local Listeners creates a feedback loop that helps campaigns stay grounded in what voters actually care about.
The Environmental Protection Agency is considering changes that would weaken limits on hazardous “cancer gas” pollution released by refineries and chemical plants. Health experts warn that relaxing these protections could expose nearby communities to higher levels of toxic emissions linked to cancer and other serious illnesses. This petition urges federal leaders to reject the proposed rollback and maintain strong pollution standards that protect public health and vulnerable communities.
Reports show rising violence inside federal and state prisons, putting incarcerated people and correctional staff at serious risk. Overcrowding, staffing shortages, and limited oversight have contributed to unsafe conditions that undermine rehabilitation and public safety. This petition urges Congress to investigate the causes of escalating violence and take action to improve safety, accountability, and humane conditions within the prison system.
