Quick Bio
I am professional software engineer, a successful small business owner, a husband, and a father of eight children. Born in Zambia and of Indian (Goan) descent, I have lived in southern California since I was one-year-old. After earning my Bachelor of Science in computer science from Cal Poly University, Pomona, I worked at various companies and organizations including GE, JPL, YellowPages.com, Los Angeles Times, and Disney. I have been involved at different times with various ministries at my parish including CCD, Familia, and Cub Scouts. In my free time, I enjoy playing games with my kids.
My Positions
“Alternative methods of voting in primaries and elections in order to make governing bodies more accurately reflect broad candidate choice. These include, but are not limited to: approval voting, range voting, and ranked choice voting.”
“Repeal the death penalty in exchange for life in prison without the possibility of parole. Aside from the death penalty being barbaric, each execution on average has cost California tax payers $308,000,000. In comparison, life in prison averages $400,000.”
“While the fight to protect the lives of the unborn is being fought at the national level, we Californians must do our part by restricting abortion to the extent that is constitutionally legal.”
