City of Fremont, District 2
My Vision
Fremont can lead by showing that innovation and compassion are not in competition. They belong together. We can be a city that creates opportunity without losing connection and a place where growth feels fair and the future feels shared. Technology will keep changing, but the values that make Fremont strong must not. The future is still human, and Fremont can be the place that proves it.
Our Collective Mission
Our mission is to join hands across District 2 to build a Fremont that listens, learns, and leads together. It’s to create a community where progress reflects our shared humanity and where every neighbor has a place in the future we build together.

ROSSIER SCHOOL OF EDUCATION
My work has always been about people. As a scholar and educator, I’ve spent my career studying how systems can serve people better and how change can begin with understanding. At the University of Southern California, where I earned my doctorate in Organizational Change and Leadership, my research focused on transforming higher education to better support students with intellectual disabilities.
My dissertation, Transforming Postsecondary Education for Students with Intellectual Disabilities, looked closely at how universities can move beyond symbolic gestures of inclusion to build programs that last. Through months of research and long conversations with program leaders and institutional staff, I explored what truly makes inclusion work. Leadership that listens. Collaboration that connects departments. A shared belief that inclusion is not only a moral responsibility but an economic opportunity for everyone.
What began as academic study has become a personal mission. I am now creating bridges between education and employment, designing workforce programs that prepare students with intellectual disabilities for meaningful, competitive careers. I want to help build systems that see people first and recognize that every person deserves the chance to grow, contribute, and belong.
These lessons continue to guide me as an educator, as a father, and as a public servant. They remind me that progress means very little if it forgets the people it was meant to serve. True leadership begins with listening, and real change only lasts when it is built together.

Sept 2003- Dec 2011
It was such an honor to serve our nation and to represent the U.S. in Europe. My dream came true when I was selected to be part of the NATO Airborne Early Warning and Control (AWACS) contingent in Geilenkirchen, Germany. Not only was it a blessing to work alongside such talented in generous individuals, but it was the opportunity of a lifetime to develop into more empathic and worldly person while serving overseas. I’m proud to have defended this country after the events of 9/11 and will always be grateful for the leadership lessons I learned along the way.
THE MILES WE CHASE
Our Family’s Journey
Our family’s story is one of perseverance and belonging. It is a story about finding beauty in challenge and meaning in responsibility. I share this journey in my first book, The Miles We Chase, which explores what it means to build a future rooted in compassion, courage, and the belief that progress must serve people first.
This campaign is an extension of that same belief. The lessons I’ve learned as a father, veteran, educator, and advocate continue to shape how I see Fremont’s future — a city that grows with empathy, listens with intent, and builds with everyone in mind.
