About me:

Hi! I represent Change & a new way forward for our future. I'm a Political and (Democratic) community activist here in Stanislaus County, San Joaquin County, Merced County, and the Central Valley. Like all of you, I'm an outsider looking into our broken Political system with disgust. I know your not happy, or you feel like something is missing from your life, or no one cares about you or you question your existence or identity. I know that most of you feel like Politics is beyond your understanding & that Politicians ignore you, yet I understand your frustration & distrust of our current Politicians who are deaf to our voices. We can't look back, & we are not happy with today; we must look forward. Imagine a future where your life has meaning & a sense of purpose again.

Our enemies are afraid of Change. Our enemies are arrogant, selfish, & jealous of our youth & our energy. Our enemies have a hatred for Change, for youth, & for our Spiritual Energy. Our enemies are afraid of us & will spread their hateful lies about our movement & my Leadership. Our enemies are against Latino's, women's rights, students, Agriculture, & alternative/herbal medicine. Our enemies our cowards, but they have their dirty money to buy elections. Our enemies fear my Leadership, they fear our movement.

Although I work tirelessly and energetically for Change, I still need all your support and loud voices to help me, and our community, succeed & be victorious. All I ask of you is to let me take you on this adventurous journey with me & to vote for 'change' every November, & vote out corrupt Politicians. In return, I promise to bring a sense of Romance, Adventure, Excitement, & Energy to our existence. We represent Change & a new way forward for our future. Then after our every battle, let us party!

Born in Texas in November, 1973 to working-class parents who later separated, & abandoned him, he was raised in San Jose, CA by his grandmother, aunt & uncle, & an extended family. In 1990, he moved to the Modesto area to complete high school. After graduating high school in 1992, he returned to Texas to live with his absentee birth-father. After 4 years, he returned to Modesto in 1996.

While working & struggling with part-time & full-time jobs like many of you, Al began studying at Modesto Junior College in 1998 & finally graduated with an A.A. degree in 2001. Transferred to California State University, Stanislaus & graduated with a B.A. in Political Science with Minors in Philosophy & Gender Studies in 2004. Began working on pre-credential teaching prerequisites courses in order to be ready for the teaching credential program. Instead of entering the Teacher Credential program, decided to change career path drastically.

Enlisted in the military in 2005 and began a profession in the U.S. Navy. Signed up for submarine duty and studied in the weapons/combat computer & electronics systems, and Tactical Computers and Network Operator fields at technical schools in Connecticut. Then stationed aboard a submarine in Pearl Harbor performing missions that were vital to National and Global Security. Al also had Anti-Terrorism training, Close-Quarters Battle training, and was issued a government security clearance of Top-Secret, SCI eligible. Although submarine duty was rough, demoralizing, & stressful, he proudly served in the Navy, and by the side of other military troopers.

Now a Military Veteran & with Stanislaus County suffering from a broken, tired, & corrupt Political system, Al hopes to be a Leader for the people in this darkest hour. Al's leadership experience has developed throughout the years & unlike too many corrupt politicians, he has a degree in Politics combined with his student & Military leadership. He has extensive experience with teamwork, leadership, management, and communication.
