As an outsider to City Hall, my focus will be on policy, not politics.  

I envision a City that is composed of small villages and neighborhoods that have thriving main streets and are connected by smart transportation.  It is a City whose budgets are balanced, and whose small businesses are charting the course for the new economy.  

Our Council member should have an analytical approach to problem solving; a strong educational background and a proven track record of engagement in the community.  I am that candidate.  

I’m a graduate of our own Occidental College and earned a Master’s degree in Public Policy from Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government.  As a former Coro Fellow in Public Affairs, I understand how policy and politics works.  I just prefer the policy. 

The major issues facing the District are the City’s structural deficit; the stifling traffic; and the competitive hurdles small businesses face.  All these issues should be approached from a long term perspective.  This requires fresh thinking and a willingness to focus on policies, not politics.
