About Me ~
I'm married, have two children and live in Chino.
I work for a Los Angeles County government agency that provides caring and effective service to thousands of children and their families. I'm currently pursuing a bachelor's degree in Public Administration, and have earned several educational certificates, including an Advanced Professional Development Certificate awarded by Cal State Northridge- Tseng College.

**Classroom Volunteer at Briggs K-8 School
**Member, Briggs School P.F.A. (09 - 10)
**Vice-President, Doris Dickson P.T.A. (08 - 09)
**Commissioner, San Bernardino County, Commission on the Status of Women

**President, AFSCME Local 1083

I established and coached (for 4 years) a "free" drill-team/dance squad at an elementary school located in the Rowland Unified School District when no other programs for young girls were available. As time passed, a boys break-dance squad was also added.
I have always been highly concerned about the young members of my community. It's because of this that I believe in the importance of advocating for ALL students, especially when it comes to education. As a community we cannot ignore the importance and value of ensuring that all children are receiving educations that will afford them the opportunity for growth, and self-sufficiency.
Communities thrive and prosper if education is a priority, for ALL children. I will seek to restore educational quality for the students of CVUSD; Ontario, Chino Hills, and Chino.
