About Andrew Crockett As A Person
Who I am is that each of us belongs. I am a willing servant to this vision because I have faced bullies in my life, as well as economic and housing difficulties in the past.
The commitment to inclusion and public service has shaped my life in several ways:
I work in civil service as a Financial Analyst - having earned my Certified Public Accountant license while doing so - because I see governmental fiscal stewardship as being key to the sense of fairness.
I have volunteered with the Registrar of Voters for almost every election since 2008.
I actively participate with my union, the County Employee Management Association (who recently endorsed me), because unions ensure our labor rights are upheld and our contracts are fair.
Why is Andrew Crockett Running For Assessor?
Compassion.
For all my friends and neighbors who have been pushed out of their homes. For my friends who cling to this valley, hidden in garages, living in attics, or sleeping in shifts in overcrowded housing - dreaming of one day owning a home. For my friends who have “made it” and are a mere layoff away from losing it all. I see you, and I am here for you.
Integrity.
We are a valley of genius. The people of this place generate innovations that earn us favorable comparison to Renaissance Italy. We are nerd mecca - and we can solve any problem we set our minds to here. This gives me hope that we are up to the challenge before us: to build a valley of inclusive prosperity.
