About Alex Ayala
Family Man
Hi, I’m Alex Ayala.
I’m a father of 3, active community volunteer, and a dedicated community advocate. I’ve lived in Salinas for over 14 years and I am proud to call this city home.
I enjoy volunteering in my community; coaching Junior Giants, being a board member for Salinas American Little League, and being an active participant in community projects like Christmas In Closter Park and various neighborhood beautification projects in District 1. I’m committed to clean parks, safe streets, fair housing options for all, and helping our children realize their dreams through impactful mentorship programs. I strongly believe in making decisions that benefit Salinas residents, not as a stepping stone in a political career. I am not a politician.
I am a graduate of San Jose State University with a degree in Political Science, I have worked in education as a Case Manager and have been a pilot for 31 years. I also have a background in law enforcement, giving me a unique perspective and first hand experience to understand the complexities of public safety, including crime prevention, community policing, and emergency response.
As your city council member, I aim to enhance our parks, improve public safety, and ensure that every voice in our community is heard. My focus is on fostering a thriving city where families can flourish and businesses can grow. I’m dedicated to being your voice on the city council, representing your concerns, challenges and aspirations for our city.
My goal is to be your voice. This is your Salinas!

With Gratitude,
Alex Ayala
