"My sole goal has always been to eliminate agricultural burning - a vestige of the past that I remember vividly from my childhood in the Central Valley. Growing up, I often wondered why those plumes of fire and smoke were allowed to darken our skies. It symbolized an outdated practice that needed to change, and I've carried that vision with me ever since."
"When I joined CARB, it was with the understanding that this was the regulatory body capable of finally closing this chapter. The local air district had used loopholes to perpetuate agricultural burning, and I knew my role as a regulator would be critical to seeing this practice eliminated once and for all."
