carmen chiu and fiona ma, thank you for setting such a great example of how we serve our constituents in district 4. and, of course, to the voters of district 4, to everyone who made it out today for this inauguration certificate michelle obama -- ceremony, and everyone who supported me, thank you so very much. i can't express how much your support meant to me. whether you helped financially or put up one of my posters in your window, whether you endorsed my campaign, whether you provided me moral support, all of that i am incredibly grateful for. i feel so honored to be able to serve on the board of supervisors and represent the district that i grew up in. i think back to roughly 10 years ago, during the summer of 2004 when i first set foot inside city hall, i was an intern at the assessor recorder's office. i was an eager college studentv and i knew very little about city government. but little did i know i would eventually be hired to work for the city in the public policy and finance office. little did i know that i would be asked to serve as a legislative aide to my predecessor c
