I have been involved in grassroots organizing at the local, state and federal level. I was volunteer lead coordinator for Tony Thurmond's successful Assembly campaign last year and campaign manager for the AD 15 ADEM election sweep this year. I was a leader of East Bay Democracy for America’s Organizing Team and a member of Wellstone Democratic Renewal Club’s Coordinating Committee. I worked on the Red to Blue victory that sent Jerry McNerney to Congress in 2006 and DFA All Star Congressional efforts in S. California and Colorado. I’m convinced we can engage County Central Committee members through grassroots organizing around issues that matter to progressives.
