I was proud to join Councilmember Foster in proclaiming October 2026 as Filipino American History Month in the City of San Diego.

I'm grateful for the many contributions that Filipino Americans have made in this country and city. San Diego is home to the fifth-largest Filipino community in the United States, with many residing in District 6, and I have the honor of calling many of these San Diegans my closest friends, mentors, and colleagues. Special thanks to everyone who joined us at City Hall today.

Even with the heat ☀️, it was a great weekend in D6! Our team connected with the community at the Annual Mira Mesa Street Fair, and later I poured a few pints for the VIP reception at EdUCate’s Oktoberfest in University City. Thank you to all the volunteers for putting on these fantastic events each year!

This past Sunday, I was proud to join thousands of San Diegans at Balboa Park for "All Are Sacred," an interfaith procession honoring the dignity of immigrants and refugees. Thank you to Bishop Michael Pham and the Roman Catholic Diocese of San Diego for bringing together representatives and communities of faith from throughout the region — around a simple truth: every person is sacred.

I had the pleasure of joining the SDSU Bilingual Development in Context Research Lab for the launch of their new book collection and event highlighting Vietnamese-English bilingualism and Asian identity in Mira Mesa. The celebration included readings by two award-winning authors and highlighted the 163 new books for preschool and elementary-aged children now available at the Mira Mesa Library.

This project was made possible through funding from the City Council Community Projects, Programs & Services Award. Read more about the program at https://bdc.sdsu.edu
