Several times throughout the week, I walk my North Long Beach neighborhood, and almost every time I see illegal dumping. When I see it, I make sure it gets cleaned within 24 hours because showing up for our community matters.
But cleanup alone is not enough. Volunteerism should support city services, not replace them. We need real prevention, consistent enforcement, and accountability. Residents should also know they can schedule several free bulky item pickups from the City throughout the year.
North Long Beach deserves better, and I am committed to implementing real solutions.
Here are a few before and after examples of the work being done to keep North Long Beach clean. @longbeachneff
For too long, decisions have been made about our neighborhoods without the voices of the people who live here. Long Beach deserves leadership that listens and puts neighborhoods at the center of every decision.
Thatās why the 3 of us are joining forces. Three candidates, 3 different districts coming together for a shared goal; putting people over politics.
Join the movement and letās move Long Beach in a new direction.
Check out our Candidate Forum on March 18, 2026 at 6 PM at the Expo Arts Center to hear directly from us about our vision for Long Beach.

When I tell people Iām from Long Beach, I say it with pride.
Growing up here means learning resilience early ; strength isnāt optional, itās part of who you become. Every corner of this city has its own story, its own rhythm, and its own challenges, but we all carry that same fortitude that only Long Beach can teach.
This city is a mix of every kind of person⦠different backgrounds, different dreams⦠yet somehow, we move as one. Thereās a bond here that only those whoāve lived it truly understand.
Long Beach doesnāt just shape you, it becomes you.
Iām not from Long Beach.
I am Long Beach.
Tap in if youāre LONG BEACH!!!

What a Motherās Day gift (video) from my kids. ā¤ļø
Our house was always filled with good food, good music, and lots of laughter. It was always important to me that I was their friend first and we had so much fun!!
Now my babies are grown, building lives and homes of their own, and while I deeply miss the days when we were all under one roof, this video reminded me that the love I poured into them, the lessons I taught, and the example I tried to set stayed with them. #WorthIt
As parents we always question if we did all we could do. So, I canāt even put into words what it feels like to know those memories, values, and moments still live inside of them. š
To my babies, this was really the best gift EVER! ā„ļøš
This isnāt just a campaign, itās a commitment.
To stand up. To speak out. To fight for our community.
