Times are uncertain, so we need to elect people to Mountain View City Council we can count on. I have been active in Mountain View for 36 years volunteering at schools, serving 9 years on the Environmental Planning Commission and Council from 2015 through 2018. I’m known for championing housing and the environment and for treating people with respect. In addition to long-term housing and traffic issues, we must work through the pandemic and eliminate systemic racism.
Keeping all residents safe and rebuilding our economy is job one. In this uncertain time, working together is key. Each person must act to keep everyone safe.
On Council, I helped raise minimum wage; added 2500 housing units with 370 affordable; made our streets safer for bikes and walkers; and opened 3 new parks. We need more housing throughout the Bay Area, particularly near jobs and transit. Now, let’s build housing in North Bayshore along with needed schools and parks.
As a civil engineer, I’ve collaborated across disciplines and agencies. As your Councilmember, I’ll apply these skills to regional challenges- protecting against climate change, building new housing with minimal displacement, enhancing transit, reducing and preventing homelessness, and making our city more just.
