ABOUT RONNY

Ronny Santana is a third generation Bay Area native. His grandfather Frank Santana (whom the famous Santana Row development is named from) was President of the San Jose Board of Realtors and Planning Commissioner for the city of San Jose. Ronny's father was a airplane mechanic and gunner in the ARMY serving overseas in Japan, Philippines, & New Guinea.

After graduating, Ronny lived in Japan for 12 years working in the acting and modeling business. Returning to America, he started public service by serving as Public Safety Commissioner for the city of Saratoga where he worked to maintain the standard of living in his city in conjunction with the heads of the local Fire and Sheriff's Departments. Issues included city infrastructure, planning & developmental projects, and city safety services.

Circumventing the globe, Ronny visited almost 30 countries in business and in service. Gleaning an international perspective, he saw first hand the parallel of what has already happened in those countries where the governments have tried and failed with their socialist and communist experiments, and what is happening now in America with the current administration repeating those exact same failed experiments with peoples lives and poor results. Been there, saw it, bought the shirt - it's not good. Santana also witnessed societies where good ol' fashion American ideals were modeled and applied, and in those societies peoples lives were flourishing. These are the same ideals that he promotes in his campaign for America- RENEWING AMERICA'S VALUES.

As an entrepreneur, Santana presently runs a small commercial & residential real estate business as well as various other business endeavors. He is very active in his church and in the creative arts department as well as speaking. In his free time he occasionally volunteers playing guitar for the residents of the local convalescent hospitals. Ronny has also volunteered in two overseas missions trips to Mexico and El Salvador helping build churches and homes for the residents there. He is married with 2 little boys, 1 and 3 years old. His wife, an immigrant, is legally and happily on her way to U.S. citizenship. When not involved in politics you can find him and his wife enjoying riding their motorcycle along the beautiful coast of Highway 1 (something everyone should do once in their life), riding dirt bikes, go kart racing, skydiving, and other exciting sports !
