Who are your primary supporters? 

I have a variety of supporters across Venice from founding families of Venice that worked with Abbot Kinney, to artists and small business owners on and off the Boardwalk, as well as many of those defined as "homeless" because I see myself in everyone. For me each is a reciprocal relationship.

 

What issue do you feel most strongly about and what’s your position? 

Currently much of my focus has been on finding healthy and effective ways to address misuse of power within our culture at many levels.

 

What's one thing most constituents don't know about you? 

 Not sure because I am an open book.

 

Why did you decide to run?

I want to continue to be part of the solution that brings about peace, and harmony  on earth. I am an artist and will continue to offer my abilities to find our way back to love which is the true superpower.
