In college, I represented students while working with the California State Assembly and Senate on education issues. In 2005, I was elected to the West Covina Unified School District’s Board of Education. I have the distinction of being the youngest elected board member in WCUSD's history. During my first term on the board, I not only served as President of the Board and Board Clerk, but I served and continue to serve as one of the two West Covina School Board members on the District/City Advisory Committee. This committee of school board and city council members works to coordinate activities and develop solutions for the community involving the locally elected city council and school boards. I am also a member of the Board of Management for the East San Gabriel Valley Regional Occupational Program, currently serving as vice-president. This Board is responsible for public education services which provide practical, hands-on career preparation and career guidance to residents in 7 local school districts.
