With my background in reorganizing corporate and government entities, I will change and rebuild this Office to bring it into this century substituting the latest youth diversion programs for mass incarceration.
Due to the budget crises, trials have changed. As a former accountant, handling $2,000,000.00 budgets in a large $2,000,000,000.00 Fortune-500 company, I controlled spending. Operating the DA’s office will be no different.
Having the pertinent supervisory experience, trial lawyer, and leadership credentials, a vote for me will bring innovation, new strategies and new solutions to make our communities safer. Putting service for all back into the DA’s office is my pledge to you. It is time for reform and to protect all people.
