Message from SARAH
It is with profound pleasure and immense honor that I stand before you, ready to serve the vibrant community and residents of San Clemente as a candidate for City Council in District 4. As a longstanding member of this wonderful community, and as a wife and mother of five children, we love to work, surf, and play in San Clemente! Throughout the past nine months, I've deeply engaged myself in addressing urgent non-partisan civic concerns impacting our city. From championing stricter regulations for sober living homes to addressing coastal erosion and advocating for beach sand replenishment, I've been actively involved at the city and state level.
By spearheading a bipartisan, issue-driven coalition of grassroots support, I have been encouraged to step forward into a leadership role on the City Council. San Clemente means the world to me—it’s given my family so much: supportive community, amazing opportunities, and so much vitality. It stands as one of the world's most spectacular and treasured cities. I'm honored to take on the responsibility of keeping our beloved “Spanish Village by the Sea” thriving for generations to come. I respectfully ask for your vote in November and the opportunity to serve you, the residents of San Clemente.
