I love Engaging throughout our Community

I’ve spearheaded numerous community, fundraising, and City-wide events, including:

The Fremont 4th of July Parade Organizing committee.
The 4th of July Parade “After-Party” featuring local nonprofits.
The Fremont Education Foundation Run 4 Fun and Gala events.
150th Anniversary of the Great Quake on the Hayward Fault.
Local efforts in support of resettlement programs, services for seniors, and services providing our unhoused neighbors with food, shelter, and wraparound resources.
