Candidate for
Director; Petaluma Health Care District

As a current resident, former clergy member in Petaluma and youth education advocate, I am familiar with the many giving individuals organizations, community leaders and groups who continually strive to improve the health of each member of our community. My desire is to work alongside the dedicated health advocates we are fortuante to have in the South County. I will work to strengthen the collaboration of all individuals and groups in an effort to improve health services for each member of our community.

As a community leader I have developed and managed social service and education programs for over 20 years. I have served two terms on a K-12 School Board, founded a Drug and Alcohol Prevention Program, currently am the director of the North Coast Tobacco Prevention Network and am serving my final year with the HC2 as it's Chairperson. I wish to offer my years of community service, skills and contacts to help lead our district in the development and implementation of quality services in all ares of health care.

I live in Petaluma with my wife Cecilia and stepdaughters Melissa and Amanda.
