SANDRA MENDOZA

I am a proud civil servant with more than 17 years of service to the City of Los Angeles, working across departments including Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA), Housing, Building and Safety, and the City Clerk’s Office. In each role, I have been part of public service strategy and program delivery to better serve our City.

I am running for the LACERS Board of Administration Employee-Member seat to help ensure our retirement system remains strong, transparent, and accountable, not just for today’s employees, but for future civil servants who deserve a secure retirement.

In my career as a Senior Management Analyst and Program Manager, I have led major citywide initiatives that required accountability, collaboration, and thoughtful leadership. I bring this same dedication and commitment to my candidacy for the LACERS Board.

I hold a Master of Public Administration (MPA), which provides a strong foundation for understanding how policy and governance intersect with employee benefits such as retirement security. Alongside this, I have actively supported employee associations and understand the value of being a dues-paying member, currently with EAA.

This election is about protecting what we’ve built together, the stability of our retirement system and the financial security of thousands of City employees. My candidacy reflects a commitment to service, integrity, and dedication to this responsibility.

It would be an honor to earn your support and your vote. Together, we can safeguard our future.
