Background
Problem Solver
Whether it's cars, computers, climbing, or cooking I give it my all. On the weekends you can find me playing beach volleyball or disc golf at our amazing public parks, barbequing, or working on old cars.
I love learning how things operate on their most fundamental level & taking the iniative to solve problems. I'm not afraid to dive in and get my hands dirty. I do all my own maintence, not just to save money, but because I care about doing it right.
Hobbies
The more complicated or intractable a problem seems, the more it energizes me to attack it with new and creative approaches. This has served me well in my current role as an Aerospace Sales Engineer, where I am tasked with figuring out how systems of incredible complexity can fit together with precision.
I want to take that same approach to policy making, using a relentless application of logic & engineering, to tackle fundamental problems facing our society today - from basic infruscture like roads & bridges, to education, to healthcare, and even housing.
By taking an un-biased review of the contributing factors to a problem, we can come up with REAL, ACTIONABLE solutions that can address the mounting issues we face every day.
What does it mean to be a leader?
Leadership means setting an example. It means holding yourself to a higher standard.
Our current leadership shows that it’s okay to lie, to steal, cheat. Kids today will grow up learning that the best way to get ahead in life, is to scam honest people and get away with it.
I believe we can do better. In fact, I know it. We deserve better from our elected representatives.

Career & Education
I have focused myself on technical challeges because that is what brings me energy. But lately, I have seen the suffering in our community that has been inflicted by policy decisions made by people that do not care, and it has inspired me to take action on behalf of those
Although Los Angeles is my Dad's hometown, I grew up in Seattle, WA and moved down to attend university.
I studied business & data science at USC from 2016-2019, graduating with a degree in Business Administration.
After college, I worked for manufacturing companies, first in the technology space, and now most recently in Aerospace.
I have always been most interested in manufacturing as I believe it provides a fundamental knowlege to how our society works today. It has also shown me many amazing things -- but it has also shown me the ills of our current system, the inequality, the waste, and the dedication of workers who keep the lights on but are not recognized for their contributions day in and day out.
I have built myself a solid foundation --- But what value does that give to my children, if our country, and our society is on the wrong footing. I am prepared to give away everything I have built so far for a chance to course correct our country before it is too late.
