WHY I'M RUNNING
Putting My Experience
to Work

What makes America great is the belief that anyone, regardless of where they were born or how funny their name sounds, can achieve their dreams. I am living proof of the ‘American Dream’ and ideals of opportunity and equality for all. I believe that there are immense opportunities for success and achievement within education. I am extremely passionate about the value of education.
My experience as refugee coming to the US, as young man with nothing but a dream and hope for better future, inspired me to seek for school board service and bring a fresh perspective as a parent and new American. I am motivated to do all I can to give back to the community that welcomed me two and half decades ago.
I am running again to continue to serve and put our students and educators first. When I first joined the school board, I wanted to address issues that the district faced and wanted to be a diverse voice that advocated students as we grow. We need voices on the board who would listen carefully, ask tough questions when necessary, and work tirelessly to make sure every decision put students and educators first. I want to continue to be that voice — and that’s what inspired me to step forward once more.
​
I trust that you will all support and vote for me. Your guidance, support and ideas all matter to me, and I value your contributions and appreciate your support.
I care about the district and all of you matter to me. Our kids’ future matter, and certainly the most important of all, our teachers matter; that is why I am running second time.
Give me the chance to serve you. Let’s make this happen!
Thank you in advance for your support and vote!
