As Vice Mayor of Buellton, District 4 Representative, Board Chair of the Santa Ynez Valley Humane Society & DAWG, and a former middle school teacher, I have dedicated my life to service, education, and building stronger communities.

My experience in the classroom, nonprofit leadership, and local government has reinforced my belief that thoughtful leadership starts with listening, collaboration, and a clear vision for the future. I am committed to helping Buellton grow in a way that embraces progress while preserving the character and sense of community that make our city special.

That means investing in safer streets and infrastructure, supporting local businesses, creating welcoming public spaces and community events, and ensuring residents have opportunities to connect and thrive. I believe Buellton can continue to grow as a destination while remaining, first and foremost, a place that feels like home.

Together, we can build a future where families flourish, businesses succeed, neighbors feel connected, and visitors experience the unique shops, outstanding wineries, exceptional restaurants, and genuine sense of community that make Buellton such a special place.
