I am the best candidate for Menlo Park District 5 because I have deep local roots and commitment to this community. As a lifelong Peninsula resident, I appreciate what has always made the Peninsula an attractive place to live and want to maintain that. Additionally, I hope to live in Menlo Park for the rest of my life and am therefore personally invested in making sure our community and schools are the best they can be. I have worked at both the federal and county levels of government, and as an estate planning attorney, I listen to what local families care about most every day.
