Brian, a long time resident of East County was elected to the Santee City Council in November 2002 and re-elected in 2006. He currently served as the city's representative on the Mission Trails Regional Park Task Force, Santee Elementary School District Conference Committee, the Santee Library Committee, the Goodan Ranch Policy Committee, and as a representative on the Metropolitan Transit Services Board. Prior to his election to the Santee City Council, he was a member of SPARC (Santee Parks and Recreation Committee) and served as a commissioner on the Mobile Home Fair Practices Commission.
Brian's service at Santee City Hall allowed him the unique opportunity to help design and implement a bright vision for the city's future. Through Brian's leadership, Santee has become one of the safest, most family-oriented communities in our region. As a Vice Mayor and City Councilman, Brian led the city's planning and approval of new retail projects, the Town Center Corporate Campus, long awaited move-up housing and the new YMCA Aquatic Center and Santee Sports Park. In addition, the assessed property value in Santee increased by $1 billion, a 25% increase, in just four years.
Through real-life private and public sector experiences, Brian has developed the strong convictions he holds in free market principals and the need for government reform to eliminate red tape and reduce taxes. His experience as a local elected official has strengthened his resolve to restore local decision making and bring our tax monies home to meet local needs.
Brian has been a Santee resident since 1978. He attended Santee Elementary, Cajon Park Jr. High, and Santana High School. After graduating from high school, Brian attended San Diego State University and earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration. As Brian and his wife, Heather, began their family, they purposely chose Santee (Heather also grew up in Santee and is a Santana graduate) as the community in which they wanted to raise their family. Brian and Heather have lived in the same neighborhood for the last twelve years while raising their three children.
Brian is a member of Board of Directors for Boys and Girls Club. He is also a member of the South Bay Rod and Gun Club, and in his spare time, he enjoys mountain biking, off-roading, swimming and playing with his family.
