Candidate Brando Cruz

Brando Cruz

Age: 52

Occupation: Planning Commissioner/Retired Police Sergeant

I’m a husband and father of four children of whom I raised in American Canyon. I am also a 23-year American Canyon resident and a dedicated servant leader with a rich tapestry of experiences spanning military, law enforcement, and community engagement. I am a formidable candidate for City Council in American Canyon.

I embarked on my journey of service in the United States Air Force, where I served with distinction as a Security Forces member, honing my skills in discipline, leadership, and strategic planning.

Transitioning to civilian life, I dedicated 22 years to law enforcement in the Bay Area. I collaborated with surrounding public safety agencies, civic leaders, and citizens with a “whole-of-community” effort to safeguard safety, security and promote quality of life. 

I currently serve as the Chair for American Canyon’s Planning Commission, where I have played a pivotal role in shaping the city's future through strategic urban planning and ensuring responsible development.

With a steadfast commitment to service, a breadth of experience, and a passion for community empowerment, I am poised to be a proactive and impactful voice for the residents of American Canyon. I hope to earn your vote.
