Judges Matter. In Santa Cruz County, we can protect our community from violent and other crimes by improving how we manage drug and mental health offenses in the courts.

Over my three-decade career in civil, family, and criminal law, I have argued thousands of cases that exposed me to a range of solutions to problems that confront communities every day. My early days as a law clerk with a district attorney, my many years representing court-appointed and low-income clients, and my courtroom experience as a pro tem judge all taught me to listen carefully, treat everyone fairly, compassionately and with dignity, and decide each case ethically.

Most importantly, as a 27-year resident, with two children educated in Santa Cruz County public schools, I care deeply about the well-being of our community. That’s why I was the only attorney principled and courageous enough to challenge an incumbent who had violated judicial ethics. I will have the strength to bring drug and mental health services into the courtrooms, improve the juvenile justice system, and short-circuit the cycle of re-offense. That’s why 24 Superior Court judges and commissioners, over 100 attorneys, multiple local groups, and hundreds of community members throughout Santa Cruz County endorse me.
