I have been proud to serve as your representative on the Monterey Peninsula Regional Park District board for the past 7 years. My goals continue to focus on expanding access and opportunities for everyone to explore, conserve, and enjoy our regional parks.  During my time on the Board, I have worked to support many important projects in our ward, including new trails and vegetation clearing at Laguna Grande Park, the upcoming completion of the FORTAG trail, and the reopening of Frog Pond. Current efforts across the wider region include the Rancho Cañada Floodplain Restoration Project, the Locke-Paddon Wetland Community Park Planning process, and wildfire fuel reduction across our district properties.

I earned my Ph.D. in Biology from UCLA and have been teaching biology and environmental science at Monterey Peninsula College for over 25 years. I am a founding member of Sustainable Del Rey Oaks and the faculty advisor for the MPC Student Environmental Club.

If re-elected, I will continue to focus on increasing access and opportunities for our residents and visitors to enjoy, conserve, and appreciate our regional parks.  Our area is filled with natural beauty and incredible habitats to explore.  From remote areas far removed from our daily lives to our neighborhood parks, the park district offers education, adventure, relaxation, and connection.

It has been an honor to serve our community, and I would be grateful for the opportunity to continue working on your behalf to protect and enhance our regional parks.
