Questions & Answers

1. Why are you running for Superior Court Judge?

I am running for judge to make justice a reality for every litigant. To give everyone an opportunity to be heard and not prejudged. To quickly and fairly resolve civil and family matters and to adequately punish offenders and to provide restitution and a sense of protection for those offended. I want to address the prevention of gang killings. I want to restore the court to the point where it can function without the fear of budget cuts, courtroom closures and court personnel layoffs.

2. What are the personal qualities which best equip you to serve as a judge?

I can communicate with all parties regardless of position, status or education. I have an excellent and respectful relationship with everyone in the courtroom, judges, attorneys in opposition, co-counsels and courtroom staff. When I served in the Municipal Court, I was exposed to judicial wisdom and temperament, while assisting presiding judges and resolving issues that were judicial in nature.
