Lake Forest Park is our home.  When the Sheridan Market closed in 2017, we invested our life savings in purchasing the Market to preserve its unique place in local history and re-establish it as a place for our community to meet and connect with one another.  

With a keen eye on fiscal responsibility and accountability, I will work diligently to protect our unique environment, watershed, and tree canopy; to maintain and improve our parks, streets, and sidewalks; develop housing policies that balance population density with the unique character of our community.  And, for this to work, there must be solid alignment between the city council and city administration.

These are real challenges that require hard decisions, prioritization, and tradeoffs.  If elected, my promise is this: the beneficiaries of this challenging work will be, first and foremost, the citizens of our community.  That is my promise to you.

As your councilmember, I will champion equity, protect biodiversity, advocate for safe streets and low-impact development that preserves character, beauty, and quality. My passion is community building, centered around meaningful outreach to both active residents and less engaged communities in need of a seat at the table. To go beyond discussion into action, I host community picnics and festivals, advocate for individuals experiencing disability and low-income, and educate on advocacy.

I love living in Lake Forest Park with biodiverse ecosystems, splendid open spaces, parks, and phenomenal volunteers. We must support and improve on these admirable qualities, work diligently for outside funds, to maximize impacts of City expenditure and ensure our City’s active waterfront park rapidly becomes a natural treasure.

Proudly endorsed by our 1st Legislative District Democrats and LFP Councilmember Semra Riddle among others. The most important endorsement I seek is yours! I would appreciate your vote this November.
