I deliver results, not empty promises. I earned my PhD in Molecular Genetics and worked as a cancer research scientist. I solve problems with facts, data, critical thinking, and common sense—and I bring that same approach to local government.

For 19 years, Temecula has been my home. I am raising my family here and have served as a Community Services Commissioner, school board director, HOA president, educator, and volunteer leader.

I’m running to give YOU a strong voice at City Hall and

keep Temecula SAFE, SMART and STRONG.
