Priorities

Intergenerational Community Engagement Through Parks and Recreation

Establish intergenerational programs such as mentorship opportunities, shared gardening projects, or tech tutoring sessions where teens help seniors with digital literacy. Expand park accessibility with adaptive equipment and seating to encourage mixed-age use. Partner with local schools and senior centers to create joint activities like storytelling events or fitness classes tailored for all ages. Lastly, secure funding or grants to enhance infrastructure and program sustainability.

Protect green space for our growing city

As cities grow, protecting green spaces is essential to maintaining community well-being, environmental health, and recreational opportunities. Prioritizing park preservation and urban tree canopy expansion ensures that residents of all ages have access to nature, which improves mental and physical health. Implementing smart zoning policies, investing in land conservation, and promoting community stewardship programs can help safeguard these vital spaces. By balancing development with sustainable planning, cities can grow while still preserving the green spaces that make them vibrant and livable.

Protecting Costa Mesa from overdevelopment

Balancing growth with responsible development is crucial to maintaining the character and livability of our city. While expansion is necessary to accommodate a growing population, thoughtful planning can prevent overdevelopment that strains infrastructure and reduces green space. Implementing smart zoning policies, prioritizing mixed-use developments, and preserving key environmental areas can help create sustainable growth. By engaging the community in planning decisions, we can ensure that development meets future needs without sacrificing the quality of life for current residents.

Community Collaboration

The divisiveness we have seen over the last few years works against my naturally collaborative nature as a lifelong team builder. As a community, our unique experiences will allow us to pave the way for the better world we all hope for, starting right here in Costa Mesa.
