During graduate school, I worked with Top Secret clearances for Analytical Assessments Corporation. I conducted research, analyzed, and wrote on matters of critical concern to the United States. After completing graduate school, I was hired to write on classified projects at Eaton, Information Management Systems Division, a multinational corporation once located in Southern California. Conducting research and working with a team to complete White Papers on intelligence systems, I continued to write on subjects related to the national security interests of the United States.

Following my time at Eaton, IMSD, I instructed courses on California Government, U.S. Government, U.S. International Relations, and other Political Science courses. I have taught at the University of California, Irvine; the Whizin Center of Continuing Education at the American Jewish University; and numerous community colleges, as well as Summit Bible College. I also had the opportunity to serve as Commissioner and Committee Chair of Community and Media Outreach for the County of Kern’s Human Relations Commission; worked on fundraising for a Cambodian Relief Effort to provide clean water to villages inside Cambodia; and, traveled to Domnesti, Romania to part of a Romanian Orphaned and Abandoned Children Relief Effort.

By electing me to be your principled public servant, I will work to always put the people of California and this nation first in order to achieve the America First Doctrine by deregulating the economy and lowering taxes for economic growth and prosperity, securing our borders, restoring the nation’s security, empowering law enforcement and strengthening the Rule of Law, ending California’s water crisis, delivering on school choice for every child, supporting energy independence and protecting the fossil fuel industry, bringing back America’s manufacturing industry, as well as voter integrity.
