As our island continues to recover from global and environmental events that have adversely impacted our community, it is imperative that the business community continues to drive the necessary changes to rebuild, develop and grow our island’s economic environment. Currently, the most pressing challenges we face are skilled workforce shortage, material shortages/supply chain disruptions and rising costs. However, all these challenges present opportunity for innovation, development and growth. I believe in order to capture the opportunities a key component is to reinvigorate our impact on local governance through information exchanges, integrated planning and joint problem solving to develop an inviting and sustainable business environment. Through local policies that happen for business instead of to businesses we can increase the number of training programs to develop skills and up-skill our existing workforce, we can encourage establishment of emerging industries, like additive manufacturing and stabilize costs. If elected, I commit to work with and support the Chamber to further contribute to the growth of our business community and prosperity of our island.”

Guam’s private sector stands at a pivotal crossroads. T he most pressing challenge is workforce instability, driven by talent shortages and high operational costs, compounded by tourism recovery and military expansion demands. However, this also presents an opportunity: diversifying our economy through technology integration and partnerships in emerging industries.
To reinvigorate the Chamber’s impact on policy-making, I propose strengthening public-private collaboration and proactively engaging with policymakers at the early stages of legislative development. A quarterly “Chamber Policy Forum” would bring together business leaders, government officials, and community representatives to foster dialogue and shape policies aligned with Guam’s economic goals. Additionally, the Chamber’s voice must extend beyond traditional industries to include new stakeholders, such as startups, freelancers, and young professionals, ensuring we reflect the full spectrum of Guam’s business community.
To prepare Guam’s businesses for the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI), I will advocate for a dedicated “Chamber Tech Task Force” focused on AI readiness. This task force would provide businesses with resources on AI adoption, promote workforce upskilling through targeted training, and establish partnerships with educational institutions to align curricula with evolving industry needs. I would also support creating a digital innovation grant program to encourage local enterprises to adopt AI-driven solutions that enhance operational efficiency.
As a board member, my approach would emphasize innovation, inclusiveness, and advocacy. The Chamber must not only respond to changes but also lead the way in anticipating economic shifts, securing our relevance in Guam’s development. Together, we can position the Chamber as a proactive, forward-thinking force that champions policies fostering sustainable growth, technological advancement, and economic resilience.

The challenge and opportunity are two sides of the same coin: development and expansion of our local workforce.
We have an extreme shortage of skilled employees across all industries. The temporary solution is to import employees – both from foreign and domestic sources. Doing so is costly, but more critically – the wages paid to those employees are exported out of Guam and have little long-term impact on our island’s economy. When the imported labor leaves, so do the capabilities.

Building a skilled local workforce invests in ourselves so we can keep the benefits on Guam: keep the money circulating on Guam, keep the talent and industries on Guam, all while stimulating development of more opportunities for businesses and their employees to develop our current markets and expand into new ones.
Establish a policy analyst position with the prime responsibility for drafting proposed legislation supporting the Chamber’s membership interests, and reviewing current legislation and drafting proposed amendments in support of the Chamber’s membership interests; and
2) Establishing an online signature portal for Chamber membership to review and endorse as signatories; so that
3) The Chamber’s Board of Directors can utilize itsDelegådu Initiative to push the proposed legislation and/or amendments with the designated Senators.
Expanding and developing the local workforce in traditional industries is key. AI cannot execute physical work. It cannot weld, pave, fix pipes, build homes, repair equipment, etc. Having an island teeming with motivated, capable, and well-paid individuals is the panacea against these technologies.

Guam’s tourism industry has historically been the best barometer of our island’s economic health. In recent years, Guam’s tourism economy as its foundation of general economic health has been supplanted by the economic benefits of the current military buildup. In 2019, Guam welcomed 1.6 million visitor arrivals. According to the 2019 Tourism Economics Guam report, this tourism base supported 21,000 job, generated $250 million in taxes, and had a $2.4 billion dollar economic impact. Today more than half of this economic impact has been lost and the tourism industry has shed thousands of jobs. Guam’s most critical challenge lies in rebuilding its tourism economy and this challenge also serves as our most promising opportunity. Federal construction spending related to the military buildup has temporarily masked the tourism crisis, but if we fail to act decisively in short order, we risk becoming a one legged economy, entirely dependent on federal funding.
In my estimation, the Chamber has historically done an excellent job of supporting policies that have positive ramifications for businesses, both small and large. I also feel that the Chamber’s position on these policies has been effectively communicated to members and the community as a whole. However, this does not always translate to the impression that the “business community” is lock step with the positions taken by the Chamber. The Chamber has an opportunity to leave policy makers with a more resounding impression that the business community as a whole is speaking in a unified voice. The key to this opportunity will lie in efforts to have business community members, whether it be owners, executives, or hourly employees go on the record with real life anecdotes on how local policy making impacts their lives.
As this is a new frontier for most businesses on Guam, the Chamber can serve as a valuable conduit for information on how emerging technologies can be integrated into both large and small business models through educational seminars and case study success stories.

Cultivating Medium Sized Businesses.Guam's business landscape is primarily comprised of large corporations (>100 employees) and microenterprises (<5 employees). There is a scarcity of small-to-medium sized businesses (5-50 employees) that indicate underlying challenges hindering business growth and scaling. One key barrier is the difficulty of navigating the business permitting and licensing process. Simplifying the regulatory environment would greatly reduce the hurdles to growth and encourage entrepreneurial risk.
Population Growth.The most promising opportunity for Guam's private sector in the next few years will be an increase in population, predominantly military-related but also in the rebound of tourism. While the exact degree of impact is debatable, this will infuse new money into the economy and we must be prepared to fulfill the needs of those consumers.
Advocacy Network. The Chamber has done a commendable job of setting up an advocacy network to interface with stakeholders in government and business.This needs to be protected and where possible, strengthened.An informal, but deliberate roster of liaisons to key policy influencers should be maintained to help with lobbying efforts on matters deemed of importance to the organization.
BroadenRepresentation. The strength of the Chamber lies in the diversity of its members and representation from all corners of the business community. This diversity should be reflected in the composition of the board. I understand the importance of this multi-dimensional perspective firsthand, operating businesses in a variety of industries including food & beverage, wholesaling, real estate, media, and technology. I would aim to amplify this by ensuring perspectives and voices from different industries have an opportunity to be heard on general or industry-specific concerns.
Engage with UOG. One of the most important resources we have in the region is the University of Guam.As a former Regent and current member of the SBPAAdvisory Council, I know there is a desire from the University to have more meaningful exchanges with its customers (businesses) about their products (graduates). The Chamber and more broadly, the private sector, should engage closely on alignment of their curriculum against practical applications within the workplace.The University is also a testing ground for emerging technology so businesses could benefit by tapping into the expertise of the student base.

Affordable housing highlights the economic challenges and policies shaping our community. Housing is foundational to stable families and thriving communities, yet high construction costs and limited land availability on Guam create significant barriers. Guam’s reliance on imported materials, strict building codes, and limited skilled labor contribute to these costs. While the military buildup opened doors for foreign workers, large contractors often prioritize military contracts, limiting benefits for local housing.
Land scarcity also complicates housing affordability. Zoning laws restrict development in prime areas, though recent efforts to allow accessory dwelling units (ADUs) on single-family lots could help. Additionally, public-private partnerships could optimize resources and reduce costs. Building off-base could save funds by relaxing strict military construction standards, enabling military and civilian housing through shared costs.
Looking abroad, countries like Singapore offer successful models. Public programs provide affordable units while incentivizing private developers. Policies like inclusionary zoning and tax credits for affordable units drive developer participation. Incentives encourage private sector innovation, such as cost-efficient building techniques, further reducing housing costs. Effective housing distribution requires fairness and transparency. A lottery system ensures equal access for eligible residents, while priority is given to individuals with urgent needs. Creative ownership models, like rent-to-own, offer flexible options for families of various incomes.
On Guam, initiatives like the CHamoru Land Trust Commission’s Land for the Landless program promote affordability but are constrained by resource shortages. Financial limitations and lack of infrastructure often leave parcels vacant or underutilized. Partnering with private developers for infrastructure and subdivision could make public land usable for housing, while maintaining government oversight to ensure quality.
A community with affordable housing ensures opportunity and stability, building a brighter future for all Guam residents. By collaborating and adapting successful strategies from other regions, we can bring affordable housing closer to reality.

I believe the most critical challenge for Guam is the revival of its tourism industry. The decline of tourism is the crux of many of Guam’s current economic struggles. The most exciting opportunity is the possible growth of local industries to support the increased federal presence. Hopefully we can onshore more and be less dependent on imported goods, services and talent.
I would appeal to policy makers with academics, describing the benefits for Guam as a whole instead of the message being a business coalition position statement that may be deemed as self-serving.
I am uncertain that diversity is an issue for the Chamber. The Chamber membership seems to be representative of the business community it serves. Instead, I would encourage more involvement of its disengaged members, and more importantly a higher level of active listening to them and their input.
Regarding tech in particular, one possibility would be to provide training in the technologies that allow for remote work and simultaneously partner with other chambers and its members within these industries to provide a feeder path to employment for remote work. Once a remote workforce and a pipeline for training is established, hopefully this new industry on Guam will become sustainable.

As Guam navigates a period of economic growth and military expansion, we face critical challenges and promising opportunities that demand forward-thinking solutions. The housing sector, in particular, is at a pivotal moment. Guam’s high rental costs are significantly influenced by military demand and workforce housing for H2B visa holders, which strains availability for local residents. This demand, combined with limitations on where Temporary Workforce Housing Facilities (TWHFs) can be built, drives up rents and constricts the housing market.
To address these challenges, I advocate for immediate and practical policy changes. We could solve this by making TWHFs a permitted use in M-1 zones, thereby eliminating the 1year Guam Land Use Commission (GLUC) process without compromising other permitting requirements. Streamlining this process would ease pressure on local housing while ensuring compliant, efficient accommodations for Guam’s workforce. Through the Guam Chamber of Commerce, I would champion public-private partnerships and legislative efforts to increase affordable housing, leveraging tax incentives and accessible land to reduce costs and improve availability. By aligning private sector innovation with public policy, we can create effective solutions that enhance Guam’s rental market for both local and federal needs.
Additionally, I believe the Chamber has a critical role in preparing businesses for the future. As technology, such as artificial intelligence, transforms industries, it’s essential that we empower local businesses to adopt these advancements responsibly. Through targeted workshops and collaborative partnerships, the Chamber can ensure that Guam’s workforce remains competitive, fostering a business environment that is both adaptive and resilient.
I am committed to reinforcing the Chamber’s influence on policy, fostering a community where Guam’s businesses and residents thrive together. With a focus on sustainable housing solutions and technology-driven economic growth, we can strengthen our island’s economy and create lasting opportunities for all.

Critical Challenge:
The COVID-19 pandemic drastically impacted Guam’s economy, particularly the tourism and visitor industry. Many businesses faced closures and layoffs, and the recovery processs is in progress. The challenge lies in reviving these sectors and ensuring sustainable economic growth.
In addition, diversification and workforce development is crucial. The overreliance on tourism makes the island vulnerable to global crisis. Upskilling and reskilling the workforce will be essential. investing in education and training programs to match the evolving job market can help alleviate unemployment and underemployment, ensuring a more adaptable and skilled workforce ready to take on new challenges.
Promising Opportunity:
The ongoing military buildup presents a substantial opportunity for the private sector. This includes job creations, investment dollars, and increased tax revenues. The construction and support services related to military presence are expected to drive economic activity and provide new avenues for business growth.
In addition, the military buildup will increase Guam's population bring in more residents, increasing demand for housing, retall, healthcare, and other services. Businesses that adapt to this growth population can see substantial growth.
Reinvigorating the Chamber's Impact
Engagement and Collaboration: Foster stronger relationships with local businesses, government entities, and non-profit organizations. Coordinate regular forums and roundtables where varied stakeholders can discuss current issues and collaboratively develop policy proposals.
Advocacy Campaigns: Initiate targeted advocacy campaigns on key issues that impact the business community. Use data and real-world examples to explain the potential effect of proposed policies.

Our island has never been so flush with the tax coffers overflowing.
Our island government operates with a $1.3 billion taxpayer funded budget. We’d think the quality of living for residents would be great with all that money: our healthcare system should be state-of-the-art, our public schools should be modern learning centers, our homes, visitors and businesses should be safe, our water and power systems should be completely reliable, housing should be affordable, and the list goes on.
a. Our challenge and opportunity as Chamber members and residents are one in the same. Now, and in the coming years, the business community must vigorously assert its voice and views on how the record revenues generated from business privilege taxes (BPT) and income taxes should be allocated. Out of the 67,650 total employees on Guam, there are approximately 23,000 licensed businesses on island which employ 51,620 private sector employees. Our small and large businesses pay $375 million in BPT, on top of the payroll taxes which are used to fund public services. We must shape and direct how those tax contributions are expended; after all, the numbers show that what we pay to the tax coffers is significant.
b. For starters, we must insist that policymakers pass a line-item budget with money specifically set aside for facilities maintenance and capital improvements.
As it stands now, the GovGuam budget is a lump sum budget with no money specified for maintenance or capital improvements. It’s no wonder why several of our public buildings and facilities are worn and outdated. A few years ago, the 1% BPT increase from 4% to 5% was supposed to be temporary and interim. That adjustment has remained. As investors and users of the publicly funded facilities, we should insist that at least 1 basis point of the 5% BPTbe allocated to maintaining and building new public facilities. That should be articulated in a line item budget annually. That’s $75 million of the $375 million collected. Once we start fixing our public facilities, our quality of life index should better for residents and visitors alike.
Further, we should invite all non-governmental business organizations to collaborate and join us in formally asserting and amplifying our views. Sharing our ideas, views and recommendations would go a long way in shaping public policy for the benefit of all, including our employees and families who want our tax dollars to work for us.
c. With the future already lapping on our shores, our Chamber must conduct membership training immediately for artificial intelligence (AI). AI is starting to explode and will be a tool which will impact the workforce and economy. How it affects our service industry is a valid question. Fortunately, Guam is uniquely positioned with the 12 submarine cables which land and connect us to the world. We are striving to establish network hubs to enhance network efficiency and capacity for all businesses on island. Giants such as Google, META and E-bay are establishing here. We should all be ready for the future.

A. I believe housing for the upcoming Military build up is one of the most critical challenges. My focus has been on connecting DoD Housing specialists with the Guam Brokers, Realtors and Investors with the hope they will forge mutually beneficial solutions.
Separate, but equally critical is improving our non-DoD critical infrastructure (water, power, communications, roads, etc) to strengthen our community against threats from both nature and foreign adversaries.
B. Guam Young Professionals (GYP) is a key component. Teaming with our Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Filipino Business organizations, as well as the Guam Real Estate Community and the Guam Contractors Association are other organizations with shared values.
C. Support efforts by UOG and Guam Community College to provide advanced classes in IT, coding and cyber security efforts. Grow our own professionals and retain them with high paying local jobs.
