I am running for South Pasadena City Council District 1 because I am committed to fostering positive change in our community. I bring the compassion and understanding of being a husband and a father to three young children, the analysis and attention to detail of a professional engineer, and the local civic experience of being the current public works commission chair. If elected I will provide leadership that is open for direct community input, while developing and executing solutions with measurable outcomes. Our community is resilient and talented; I will work tirelessly to ensure that our decision-making aligns with our present needs and future goals.
