Student Success

Every student deserves the support they need to succeed. I will advocate for strong academic resources, including counseling, tutoring, and clear pathways to completion, whether students are pursuing transfer, career training, or lifelong learning.

Workforce + Transfer Readiness

Santa Monica College must stay aligned with today’s economy. I support strengthening partnerships with four-year universities, unions, and local employers so students graduate with relevant skills and clear next steps.

Trustee Governance

Effective trusteeship requires ethical leadership, transparency, and accountability. I will prioritize listening to students, faculty, and the community while setting measurable goals and maintaining high standards of governance.

Safe, Supportive Campuses

Students learn best when they feel safe, respected, and supported. I support campus environments that promote well-being, mental health, and a sense of belonging for all students.

Fiscal Responsibility

Public trust depends on responsible stewardship of resources. I will work to ensure budgets are transparent, funds are used efficiently, and long-term planning protects Santa Monica College’s future.
