My vision of Carmel is one where we understand our past and our present, and then plan our future. It is a future where we all work together as our founders did, to protect, preserve and enhance what we value: the relaxed, outdoor lifestyle, and a vibrant, community oriented downtown that reflects both our geographical and historical place.

Without good government, it's not possible to turn a vision into reality.  I am running for the Carmel-by-the-Sea City Council because I believe that I can make a difference in our government.  To do that, my campaign stands for three ideas that will benefit residents, businesses, and visitors alike:

• A transparent city government that shows respect for its constituents and is in return respected by its constituents.
• A city government that plans for the future and lives within its means.
• A city government that respects and improves the quality of life of all of us that live here.
