mom & Tech entrepreneur
hi! I'm tanya
I volunteer in our SBSD schools every week. And I am a Solana Beach Schools Foundation board member. I'm running for the SBSD school board because I want to continue to give back-- for my daughter and all kids.
public EDUCATION CHANGED MY LIFE
I'm the proud product of California public schools. I didn't grow up with a lot of money, but my public school education gave me foundational skills that unlocked opportunities. Public schools created a pathway for me to earn a BA from Stanford, an MBA from Northwestern, and build a successful career in tech.
Every child deserves these types of transformative opportunities.
MY PLEDGE TO YOU
I will be a responsible steward of your deep investment in our schools by collaborating to protect and advance our high-performing schools. I’ll represent the needs of all students, families, and teachers to forge a strong, united community.
