I love serving my hometown. Growing up in Burien, I worked for local businesses to put myself through school. Now, I get to help working Burien families like my own. As your City Councilmember, I’ve worked hard on pandemic recovery, lower utility tax bills for seniors, and funding police and emergency services.
I’m running again because City Council needs to do better. Burien is facing challenges around gun violence and homelessness. I’ll push for more first responders, treatment programs, and housing, while holding our homelessness programs and government officials accountable. I’ll work to bring more living-wage jobs, and make Burien the best place to live, work, own a business, and raise a family. Together, we can build a community that’s safe, prosperous, and vibrant!
Endorsed by: Congressman Adam Smith, County Councilmember Dave Upthegrove, Senators Joe Nguyen and Karen Keiser, unions including Carpenters, Food & Commercial, Laborers, and neighbors across Burien.
I’m running to improve the lives of the people in Burien by working with you to strengthen our community throughout the city - celebrating our unique diversity. I will support small business development, increase housing for all, and protect our environment, with a focus on making us all safe in a city where our needs are met.
We need leaders who understand the challenges of working families, listen to your voices, and act, to find the best solutions for our city. A single mother who raised two sons in Burien; I know what it’s like to struggle. My professional negotiation and conflict resolution skills uniquely prepare me to lead. I have the experience and training to be effective. I will elevate individual voices, support community, and make tough decisions.
Endorsements: KC & 33rd Democrats, Executive Dow Constantine, SEIU, Working Families Party, Senator Karen Keiser, Representatives Tina Orwall & Mia Gregerson.
