Serving as councilwoman for District 7 has been one of the great honors of my life. I have not taken the trust placed in me by the residents of my district for granted, and I have spent my time on council fighting for our families, students, and businesses that call District 7 home. I never could have imagined that after immigrating to Chico in 2007 from Delhi, India, and overcoming the tragic death of my husband in an automobile accident, that I would have the privilege to give back to my community that was there for me in my hardest times.
