We did it! The election results have been certified and below you will find the final numbers of the November 7, 2006 election. I count it an honor and a privilege to serve as your new Santa Ana City Councilman representing Ward 4. I look forward to the next four years and to working together to improve basic services in our City and to move Santa Ana to greater heights.

Dear Neighbor,

Like you, I envision a bright and prosperous future for the City of Santa Ana. With its rich history, active neighborhoods, and great momentum our city is waiting to be brought back to enjoy its full potential as the vibrant heart of Orange County.

We need someone with leadership to step up and advocate for bold, positive change. We need someone with vision to inspire a movement of renewal across our city. We need someone with commitment that will keep focus on Santa Ana’s future and will stay here to partner with residents to make positive change happen. This is why I am running for City Council.

Many of you who know me know that for over the past ten-plus years I have been working tirelessly toward a brighter future for Santa Ana’s children, families, and neighborhoods. It is through this background that I have earned the support of our neighborhood leaders, the majority of the Santa Ana City Council and School Board, the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce, Santa Ana Police Officers and Firefighters, along with many others.

I would really like to hear your thoughts and ideas, please feel free to contact me at This email address is being protected from spam bots, you need Javascript enabled to view it or at (714) 475-1630.

Santa Ana’s best days are still ahead. Please join me in building a safe, beautiful, and economically vibrant Santa Ana. Together we can move Santa Ana forward!

Sincerely,

Santa Ana Planning Commissioner
