Biography

I was born in Marin at Marin General, now called MarinHealth, by the way, why the heck did they have to change the name? I'm calling it Marin General, I don't like that MarinHealth name. Who does? Anyway, I also delivered via c-section all 4 of my children at Marin General. 

I started a real estate business from scratch when I was 22 years old. It became very successful and my company donated a lot of money to community sponsorships. I believe in giving back to the community. I love Marin. Unlike the other candidates, I am running only because I want to make a difference and I'm willing to ask the tough questions of the executives that the other candidates and current board members will not. 

Political Beliefs

Political Philosophy

My political philosophy is that we need to take care of each other and have compassion. Evidence of my philosophy is validated by my nearly 3 decades of generosity to the community's charities. My company Bradley Real Estate was one of the largest corporate donors to local non-profits. 

I have spent countless hours advocating for people on various issues. My goal is to be someday elected to congress. I ran in the primary election for congress for District 2 as a member of the Green party and aligned mostly with that thinking. I do support Black Lives Matter; however, I can't entirely agree with defunding the police. In fact, I believe that to reform the criminal justice system, we need to increase law enforcement budgets, including oversight of law enforcement, public defenders, prosecutors, and the judges. We also have better assimilation programs for released prisoners, including strong mental health support in order to reduce recidivism.
