Mark Turner is not only a hardworking individual but also a visionary leader with a passion for supporting all local businesses. During his time at the Chamber of Commerce, Mark made a significant difference in supporting Latino-owned businesses while fostering inclusivity and a sense of community. Thanks to his leadership, I felt valued as a person but also a business owner, and I felt empowered to give back and partner with many other community businesses as well. 
As a personal friend, colleague, and community partner, I wholeheartedly endorse Mark Turner for Mayor of Morgan Hill. I know he possesses the vision to move our community forward.
