As an Oakland native with family roots in this city for more than a century, I love my hometown and am driven to serve our community. My experience runs deep with an abundance of government, non-profit, economic development, advocacy and education roles over the last twenty plus years. I’m raising, and have raised, four amazing children here, ages 10 - 31, and my extended family has also answered the call to serve as former and current Oakland Police & Fire members, business owners, lawmakers, faith based leaders, nonprofit leaders, educators, and advocacy organizers.

VISION FOR OAKLAND

Renew - Reclaim - Rebuild

I envision an Oakland where every individual, regardless of their background, has equal access to opportunities and resources. My mission is to bridge the gaps, amplify underrepresented voices, and create a city where everyone can thrive. Through collaborative efforts and innovative solutions, I aim to build a more inclusive and prosperous Oakland for future generations.

Public Safety

People deserve to feel safe in their homes, communities, and throughout Oakland. By working in trust and full collaboration with the Oakland Police Department, Oakland Fire Department, and the District Attorney’s Office, I will:

  • Get tougher on crime in a responsible and humane manner.

  • Increase our police force and reduce excessive overtime.

  • Keep fire stations and fire engines open, avoiding unnecessary closures. 

  • Further activate and increase our Neighborhood Community Policing and Neighborhood Watch programs. 

  • Continue to fund and build upon proven violence interruption programs such as Ceasefire and Violence Prevention Initiatives. Ceasefire (developed in Oakland by Regan Harman) has been utilized in cities across America, to drastically reduce violence, murders and crimes.

Fiscal Responsibility

Oakland’s budget crisis requires discipline, accountability, and strong oversight. Together with the City Auditor and Finance Department, I will:

  • Make tough budget decisions, merging departments to conserve resources, and improve efficiency of spending. 

  • Attract business and property development to build tax revenues.

  • Cut expenditures that aren’t serving Oakland. 

  • Apply for grants and aid at all levels of government to support General Purpose, Emergency, Transportation, Public Health & Social Services.

Economic Revitalization

Accelerating the growth of all business districts and travel corridors will make the city an attractive destination for businesses and create 

opportunity for all. By working with creatives and business leaders, I will:

  • Support local businesses by providing resources, initiatives, and services that they currently pay taxes for. 

  • Access funding for growth and development opportunities.

  • Showcase culture, arts, and food industries. 

  • Work with Travel Oakland to change the narrative and world views of our city, rebranding and amplifying Oakland as a top travel destination.

  • Increase our presence and vitality to film makers worldwide, highlighting our diversity and showcasing the impact of our Changemakers and Trailblazers.

Affordable Housing

Having a place to call our own is a vital part of individual and community success. By working responsibly with developers, I will:

  • Build more affordable and market rate housing. 

  • Access emergency funding streams via County, State, and Federal Resources.

  • Attract large businesses with initiatives to fill vacant buildings and properties (after Oakland has a continuous decrease in crimes and cleaning of streets).

Public Health

 Health is wealth and Oaklanders deserve access to care, services, and partnerships that enable each of us to live fully. By working together with Public Works, Public Health, Sanitation Services, and local organizations I will:

  • Support our most vulnerable communities, providing mental health services in partnership with the County Social Services department.

  • Clean up our streets, complete our pavement plans, and fix the plethora of potholes across our Neighborhoods
