Why I Am Running and What I Am Supporting and Promoting
1. Well-being and Prosperity
I believe every resident deserves to live in a community that promotes both; personal
well-being and collective prosperity. I am committed to championing policies and
initiatives that ensure a high quality of life, economic growth, and opportunities for all.
When individuals flourish, so does our community. My goal, is to create an environment
where everyone can thrive, knowing that their voices are heard and their needs met.
2. Objective and Scholarly Analyses of Contracts
Transparency is essential for trust. I am dedicated to providing clear, objective, and
research-based analyses of all city contracts. This ensures that every decision is based
on sound evidence and benefits all parties involved.
My approach is guided by the principle: "Without both of us gaining, there’s no deal
to be made.”
By holding ourselves to the highest standards of accountability, we can foster
community trust and ensure the wise use of resources for everyone.
3. Demonstrating Economic Impact and Growth
Every policy and project should contribute to our economic vitality. I aim to bring clarity
and transparency by regularly sharing evidence of each initiative’s effectiveness and its
contribution to our community’s economic growth. This not only strengthens the
financial health of our city but ensures that every step we take enhances our
community’s future.
Promoting Important Social and Cultural Goals
1. Expanding Access to Information and Meetings
Informed citizens are empowered citizens. I am committed to broadening access to city
council meetings and other civic gatherings. Rather than relying solely on our website, I
will ensure that all community members receive regular updates and meeting invitations
via email, fostering transparency and participation. Open lines of communication allow
everyone to have a voice and stay informed on the topics that matter most to them.
2. Analyzing and Sharing Public Policy Updates
Policy impacts all of us, and we deserve to understand its implications fully. I will
prioritize regular, transparent updates on public policy, sharing in-depth analyses and
any adjustments well in advance of meetings. By clearly listing the rationale and potential outcomes months before critical discussions, we empower the community to
engage meaningfully and make informed choices that align with their values.
3. Strengthening Individual Liberty and Community Unity
Through open communication, accessible information, and clear policy analysis, my
mission is to enhance individual freedom and build stronger bonds within our
community. Transparent policies and strategic communication help residents
understand how decisions are made; ultimately, boosting trust and fostering unity.
Together, we can strengthen our community and shape Rancho Santa Margarita into a
place of enhanced quality of life, transparency, and shared prosperity. Thank you for
supporting these important efforts to serve and,
As Wordsworth put it: “Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers.”
Setting Term Limits
To avoid discrepancies, I suggest the mayor serve a four-year term and
a limit to two successive terms.
