Our District

District 5 is home.

From my home village of Woodbridge to the University Park Library, District 5 is a mosaic of villages, parks, and schools that together capture everything that is special about Irvine.

A community of villages.

District 5 stretches across some of Irvine's most beloved neighborhoods. Each village has its own character — but we share the same values: strong schools, safe streets, and green space we can all enjoy.

Priorities

A Practical Plan for Irvine and D5.

Four areas where I'll focus on day one.

01

Public Safety First

Keep Irvine the #1 safest city in America. I will oppose any cuts to the Irvine Police Department budget and ensure our public safety resources stay fully funded.

02

Fiscal Restraint

Get Irvine's budget back on track. I'll push for the discipline and accountability needed to close the deficit and protect our long-term financial health.

03

Focus on Local Issues

Prioritize what affects residents every day: well-maintained roads and infrastructure, real traffic mitigation, and growth that's responsible and respects our neighborhoods.

04

Keep University Park Library Open

Work closely with community leaders and city staff to extend the library's lease with the county. District 5 families deserve to keep this important resource.
