The City is in a unique position to improve the quality of life of our residents.  I’m hearing from all age groups in every neighborhood that it’s important to provide a voice for workers, families, and the next generation on the Council. People are concerned about the risks of working families and young people leaving the City. People want the City to invest in the needs of its residents. Of course, people talk about roads, but they’re also stressing the need for affordable and workforce housing, diversifying career opportunities, and places and spaces for our youth.

elevating the needs of our workers is good for business, Strengthens our local economy, and is Necessary for the long term health of our City.

Our hardworking residents deserve a voice on the Council and I am honored to have been chosen to be that voice.

Meet Kris

I’m Collaborative and Community-Focused with a proven track record of bringing people together to solve problems. My Career was centered in reaching out beyond my “circles” to ensure decisions were based on broad needs of the community. I’m ready to apply my Skills and experience and to serve the people of Paso Robles.

My family came to Paso Robles in the 1970s when I was a young girl. I was a 4-H member, a Pioneer Player, and a Paso Robles High School graduate. I earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Cal Poly. I was a single mom, a baseball mom, and a Bearcat mom. I led the Vineyard Team, a local non-profit dedicated to sustainability, for 23 years where I brought together people with different interests to find common solutions. I’ve served the Latino community for decades through education, first generation scholarships, and volunteerism. I bring a different professional and life experience to the table that brings balance to the council. LEARN MORE

I want everyone to have the same opportunities I had to create a better life.

I remember when a flat tire was a real hardship and when I was so exhausted that we ate “Kids Eat Free” at Denny’s more times than I can count. I also remember how proud I was to buy my first new car (a 2 door Toyota Tercel) and a tiny bungalow where I could plant roots for my son and me.

I’ve been fortunate to have opportunities to get ahead, little by little, thanks to a lot of hard work, perseverance, and support from my family and community.
