Reason for Seeking Public Office:
I believe that my experience as a police captain in the Maui Police Department and as a community leader, have given me the experience and education to bring proper representation for the people of South Maui. The election this year is about meaningful change and hope for our community and as a legislator, I can use that experience to make a positive difference not only in my district, but in the state as well.
