The Campaign Is Under Way & Early Endorsements!

Campaign Progress Update!

Our campaign is under way. I’ve focused on conversations with people in the community that care about education, families, and housing.

Solving the challenges that our district faces today and will face tomorrow will require collaboration and learning. Equity, educator & staff retention, and transparency & community engagement are not new issues in education and we don’t have to go it alone.

Here are some of the public officials & community leaders who have chosen to endorse me for School Board:

- Don Horsley, County Board of Supervisors - David Canepa, County Board of Supervisors - Diane Papan, City of San Mateo Mayor - Julie MacArthur, Educator & San Mateo Elementary Teachers Association President - Marc Friedman, San Mateo Union High School District Board Vice President - Melodie Lew, Former San Mateo-Foster City School District Board Trustee - Nancy Kohn Hsieh, Former San Mateo-Foster City School District Board Trustee - Chelsea Bonini, Former San Mateo-Foster City School District Board of Trustees President - Sara McDowell, San Carlos Council & HEART Board Member - Mark Nagales, South San Francisco Council & HEART Board Member

Thank you to the many residents in San Mateo & Foster City that have taken the time to meet with me - your time, your insights, and your advice have been so valuable in helping me ramp up fast. I’m excited to get to work!
