What are your plans for the DASB?

My plans are to pick up the torch from where the last senate just left off. We're going to really work on getting recycling program incentives for students who carpool and try to increase the carpool parking. I also want to promote a better system to offset the skyrocketing cost of food. I think that they have to have a multicultural senate in order to speak to people because people want be represented inside the senate.

Which projects of the DASB do you support and why?

I support the talks with the VTA. I do support that because it's about 40-50 percent of students that travel on the VTA. The bus will be more convenient to alleviate driving and the traffic congestion here on campus. I feel that there are some programs that are being overlooked. I also stand behind having the ATM card built into the DASB card, but for me I want that to be a little bit more secure.

Why are you running for president?

The reason I am running for president is because I believe I hold the experience of two consecutive years. You have to have the public knowledge, understanding and you have be there for students.



Which projects of the DASB do you support and why?

I support environmental sustainability, Eco-Pass and planning for the budget cuts. I support them because they have a huge effect on De Anza's environment. If we implement environmental sustainability we're able to save money, we're able to use renewable resources and we're able to cut costs so we can spend on other programs.

Why are you running for President?

There's a couple of reasons. I've been at De Anza for four quarters now and De Anza has helped me a lot in ways. Compared to many other community colleges, it's a step above, way above. The second reason is that I have background in organization management. I've been in business for a while and I'm really interested in management. I'm good at it and that's what I want to do in the future. I want to test myself out, get some experience and learn from my mistakes and hopefully from my accomplishments.



Which projects of the DASB do you support and why?

Free campus WiFi, a big supporter of that. And they want to put a bus stop in that wouldn't actually have to be paid for by the school. That I'm a big supporter of. There's a project that would make it that all students would get 3,000 pieces of paper per quarter of free printing. I am totally against that.
