I see this community from a unique perspective. I came to this country as an immigrant. I became a US citizen. I built two local businesses that together create 18 jobs here in Yakima County every month. And every week, I put on my uniform as a police officer.
In my first year, I will focus on three priorities. Protecting our youth. Supporting victims of domestic violence. And preventing fraud, especially against our senior citizens. Our seniors built this community. We owe them protection and respect.
