Every Alameda student deserves the opportunity to succeed, whether they need extra support or greater academic challenges. I will focus on strong reading and math instruction, using data to identify students who need help early. Our schools should prepare students for college, careers, and life while maintaining the excellent programs our community values.

Outstanding teachers are the foundation of great schools. Alameda must continue attracting and retaining excellent educators by providing competitive compensation, professional support, and respectful collaboration. When teachers have the resources they need, students thrive.

Alameda Unified faces difficult financial challenges, making every dollar count. I will advocate for transparent budgets, careful long-term planning, and spending that prioritizes classrooms and student learning. As a CPA with nonprofit financial leadership experience, I will work to ensure taxpayer dollars are managed responsibly.

Students learn best when they feel safe, respected, and connected. Every child should experience a school environment where they are welcomed, supported, and able to focus on learning. I will support practical measures that promote both physical safety and student well-being.

Families are essential partners in their children's education. I believe the school district should communicate openly, explain decisions clearly, and actively listen to parents, students, staff, and community members. Building trust starts with honest, two-way communication.
