In the past year I've been meeting and discussing housing policy with anybody interested in the subject. As I've delved more deeply into the subject I found a passion for policy that I didn't know I had before.
San Francisco is at a historic junction, discussion revolves around developing or not, where to develop and where not, various visions of the future are on the table.
I have returned to study Urban Planning at SF State Univesity which is giving me the history and adding a level of knowledge to my activism.
Last night I was a gathering of neighborhood activists from around the City and we could have talked all night.
I truely enjoy building relationships with passionate, intelligent people that are willing to discuss and work towards a vision of the city. I would rather be in conversation with someone that makes me think and persuade than someone that agrees with me.
I came to this passion from my work as a Realtor. When we take our oath and state that we will work to support home ownership opportunities. In San Francisco we have a incredible affordability gap. We still are attracting the best and the brightest for cutting edge industry and how do we cope. Very interesting times.
I love this City!
