It has been my distinct privilege to serve on the Redmond City Council. In that time, we’ve undertaken the planning for the light rail system, planned for the growth in Overlake with utility upgrades, built the senior center, built a new fire station and planned for the residential neighborhood of Marymoor Village.

I serve our community with Redmond Kiwanis, the Redmond Police Foundation (including funding Redmond PD's sniffer canine) and the OneRedmond Foundation (activating our centers) that make significant impacts in Redmond. I also serve on the county Emergency Management Advisory Committee in addition to chairing a council committee and Community Facilities District.

I do Not support making city council a full-time job nor raising our salaries; it would mean terrible cuts to productive staff. Thank you for your past support and respectfully ask for your vote to re-elect David Carson on August 1st and November 7th for Position 7.

I have been a Redmond residents for nearly 15 years and love our city. It's been amazing to see Redmond’s transformation from a small town to a growing city. However, there are also new issues affecting quality of life: potholes, traffic gridlock, personal safety, urban planning missteps, and low scale of commerce in the community.

As your council member, I will bring my business, management, and corporate experiences to solve these issues. 

I will work with the community to identify and fix quality of life issues, protect our environment, and make Redmond more desirable. I will work with business leaders to expand the tax base by increasing commerce, and reduce the dependence on ever increasing property taxes. This will keep seniors in their homes and make housing affordable for everyone. I will work tirelessly to ensure equity and transparency in government operations, and spending. I humbly ask for your Vote

Redmond is growing in leaps and bounds. We deserve a leader with a vision for a more inclusive, welcoming city that creates a sense of belonging for all. Longtime Redmond resident, single mother, US Navy veteran, and member of the LGBTQ+ community, I bring a lived experience to Council that currently does not exist.

As your next councilmember my top priorities will be housing, safe and healthy communities for all, and transparent government that supports thriving businesses and residents. My deep relationships with other Eastside Leaders enables us to work collaboratively while respecting our differences. I believe in the spirit of “Nothing About Us Without Us”, ensuring our most impacted communities have a seat at the table. I will lead with a lens of equity and a deep sense of integrity and accountability to move us forward together.
