With a steadfast commitment to advancing equity and inclusion, I bring my experience as the Community Relations Manager at the San Francisco Community Health Center and a former Community Relations Manager for the City and County of San Francisco’s Office of Transgender Initiatives. My work centers on advocating for women’s rights, equal housing, economic opportunities, and access to affordable healthcare—especially in the realm of mental health. At the core of my efforts is the urgent need to restore trust, bridge divides, and foster meaningful connections between the LGBTQ community and government leaders.

I am deeply honored to serve as the first transgender woman appointed Commissioner of Arts and Culture for the City of San Leandro. In this role, I championed cultural expression by ensuring that all voices were given a platform. I also spearheaded the creation of the city's first small business grant of its kind, reflecting my belief that intentional leadership drives inclusivity and economic empowerment.

As the first transgender commissioner for Alameda County’s Status of Women Commission, I’ve dedicated my advocacy to advancing the rights and well-being of women on both local and global levels. Women’s rights are not merely an issue to address—they are a foundation for building a fair and just society. I continue to prioritize amplifying the voices of women from diverse backgrounds and tackling systemic barriers that disproportionately affect them.

Looking forward, my focus is on rebuilding hope within our communities, restoring trust in our government officials, and revitalizing faith in the Democratic Party. I believe that through intentional leadership, we can unite diverse communities to shape a future rooted in equity, opportunity, and justice for all.

Together, we can create a society where every individual—regardless of their background—has access to safe housing, affordable healthcare, and equal opportunities to thrive. Thank you for your support as we move forward on this journey of progress and inclusivity. Let's work hand in hand to ensure that every voice is heard and valued.
