Welcome
I am very excited to announce the launch of my campaign for Suisun City Council 2020. I grew up in Suisun City and love the diverse community that makes this city so unique. I have been an active community member since I was a youth and have experience in leading various community organizations to support initiatives that help improve the quality of life for others. I know what it means to work with limited resources, think through long-term strategies, and collaborate with others to bring forth the best solutions.
I moved to Suisun City when I was seven years old. My father, a carpenter, helped build some of the homes in our community. Some of my extended family members helped to construct the main hotel located in Downtown Suisun. An aunt of mine successfully ran a restaurant in the Suisun Marina shopping center for several years. This city is where I see my nieces and nephews play in the park and attend school. This is the city that I hope to one day raise a family of my own. That is why this city, this community, the people that make this city their home, and the issues that require diligent work to improve our quality of life mean so much to me.
As a Suisun City Councilmember my job and focus will be to improve quality of life, public safety, community engagement, and local economic development. In this COVID-19 global pandemic, the effects are felt locally. It is imperative that resources, information, and a strategic plan take into consideration the evolving changes that our community faces and will continue to face. I am currently working to support our small businesses, save local jobs, share information and resources in multiple languages, and participate in city committees designed to improve our environment and advise our city council on the economic effects due to this pandemic.
I invite you to join me in helping make a greater difference for our city. I would be honored to have you help me accomplish these goals through your contribution, by following and sharing my social media pages, and by letting me know what is important to you regarding Suisun City at alma4suisun@gmail.com or at (707) 681-5924. I am here, I am listening, and I am working to help move Suisun City forward.
