FLIP Berkeley City Council: My Interview and Questionnaire
In my interview and questionnaire with FLIP Berkeley City Council, I discuss housing affordability, tenant protections, public space, local businesses and the infrastructure Southside needs. Watch the conversation and read my written answers.
Southside Issues Brief: Transit, Student Support, Housing, Health, and Preparedness
Southside Issues Brief: Move-In, Autonomous Taxis, Affordable Housing, and Encampment Accountability
Pride Means Belonging You Can Live In
Pride is more than visibility. It is whether LGBTQ+ people can afford to stay in Berkeley, move through public space safely, and have a City Hall that treats belonging as something concrete.
Who Decides the Future of Telegraph Avenue?
Every morning before most of Berkeley is awake, Telegraph Avenue is already being cared for. After spending time with the Telegraph Ambassador team and attending the Telegraph Business Improvement District annual meeting, I came away with a deeper appreciation for the people whose daily work keeps Southside clean, welcoming, and economically vibrant. Telegraph’s future depends less on one transformative project than on consistent stewardship, responsive government, and investing in the people who show up every day.
District 7 is small enough for every neighbor to matter
District 7 is one of the smallest and most unique council districts in Berkeley. It includes UC Berkeley, Southside, and the Telegraph corridor. It is a renter-majority district, with roughly 2,500 voters, and small margins can decide the outcome.
That matters.
