Values in Action

~ Safety
Ojai is a fire-prone valley of 4 square miles with two roads out. Safety here means readiness, not just response — and it means a government residents can trust to protect them. As your council member, my job is to develop and support policies that build a resiliant Ojai. This means calm streets—safe for walking, biking, skating, and strolling. Safety also mean confidence that you and your neighbor's constitutional rights are protected and defended. Download the "one-sheet" plan .
 
~ Sustainable Regenerative Economy
Ojai already has what most cities would have to build from scratch — restoration crews, regenerative farms, wellness businesses, and conservation groups. My plan connects them into one economy and funds the loop that keeps it running: the land supports local business, local business supports city revenue, and revenue gets reinvested back into the land. Download the "one-sheet" plan.

~ Rights Matter 
In August 2026, USDA filed to rescind the Roadless Rule outright, citing wildfire risk on the same 45 million acres supposedly safeguarded twenty-five years ago. No court ordered this, no legislature voted on it — one administration's priorities replaced another's, and the paperwork followed. Real protection requires statute: a roadless Area Conservation Act, codified by Congress and enforceable in court, not a rule that exists only until the next administration decides it doesn't. Download the "one-sheet" plan.
