I moved to Compton more than 40 years ago and found it to be a beautiful city, full of prosperity and growth. Residents were proud to live, work and raise their families here. I want to contribute to the on-going effort to restore that same sense of pride, quality of life and economic growth in the city to all of its residents.
I am consensus builder and a team player. I have the ability to provide strong leadership. I will ensure that Compton resident’s voices are heard in City Hall. The current council has made a good start of revitalizing Compton. I want to be part of the progress and transformation of our city.
My top three priorities are: Public Safety, Economic Development, and partnering with our schools for benefit of your youth. I will protect programs for our youth as well as our senior citizens. I will protect city assets and maintain a balanced budget. I want to improve city services for the benefit of all residents.
