I am a lifelong resident of Seaside, a Seaside High School graduate, and attended the University of California, Berkeley. My experiences on the City Council, as Mayor,as Chair of the Fort Ord Reuse Authority, Commissioner of the Local Agency Formation Commission, past President of the Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments, past Chair of the Transportation Agency of Monterey County, Director on the Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency, Chair of the Seaside Ground Water Basin Water Master, Carpenter's Senior Field Representative for Santa Cruz and Monterey Counties and with volunteer organizations, have developed my abilities in leadership, team building, and problem solving. My abilities to build consensus, provide leadership and the positive vision I possess are necessary to moving Seaside forward. As a Council Member I recognized a need for and initiated a strategic planning process to establish priorities to guide our development project and our budget process. We've since established priorities with the City Council and the City staff management team based upon citizen input. I also took the initiative and introduced resolutions regarding our community including; support for Measures R and now P the MPUSD Bond, Opposing school closures in Seaside, and others. We have also implemented a two year balanced budget during my administration.I feel that my forward thinking and strategic planning skills are my strongest assets for my candidacy and for the City. I have the experience and proven leadership to capitalize on the recovering economy. Education:
