My Community Involvement
My commitment to community is built on a strong foundation of family, faith, and a genuine passion for bringing people together. Whether it’s through volunteering, supporting local organizations, or simply showing up for neighbors and friends, I believe in the power of connection to create positive change. Here’s a look at some of the ways I stay involved and strive to make a difference
Civic Service
For three years, I had the honor of serving as a Planning Commissioner for the City of San Jose. This experience allowed me to contribute to the city's development and planning, ensuring our community grows and thrives.
Arts & Culture
A proud member of the San Jose Multicultural Artist Guild and Teatro Familia Aztlan, I love performing for local theater. My passion for the performing arts is a creative outlet and a wonderful way to connect with our community's rich cultural heritage.
Teaching & Youth Mentorship
Sharing skills with the next generation is incredibly rewarding. I'm currently a volunteer teaching drama and introductory acting to 4th and 5th graders. Previously, I taught baking to young students, including my favorite pineapple upside-down cake recipe!
Family, Faith & Fun
In my free time, you can find me enjoying the outdoors with my family. We love to hike in the mountains, visit local parks, and spend time at the beach. My faith is also a central part of my life. I love to dance, have fun, and capture life's beautiful moments through my love of photography.
