City of Auburn
Council Position 5
Auburn's city council needs a voice in it that speaks for the average worker in Auburn. We need someone at town hall meetings who understands where fellow constituents are coming from.
As a math teacher I take complex ideas and simplify them so that a wide array of thinkers can understand and engage in any topic. As a local roller derby coach, I keep in touch with my community. As a union bargaining team member, I engage those in authority and speak up for those who need a voice.
I intend to have the council act on issues that affect us on a daily basis, such as making sure the garbage isn't over flowing on the Interurban Trail, increasing neighborhood bus access, and making sure utilities run reasonably and responsibly. I want to represent you as one of you. Thank you.
As an Auburn city resident I see many priorities facing us including displaced families, a safer community, the opioid crisis, having a financially stable city, more jobs and business opportunities, roadwork and more. As a council member, I vow to work towards the success of these.
As a Chef, mentor and restaurant manager for 19 years, I have developed the strengths of leadership and problem solving. I am known for my passion and taking action in finding ways to improve systems, processes and procedures. In my current position, I successfully manage a budget greater than that of the City of Auburn, so I understand money management. I volunteer at my daughter’s school in Auburn and am an inaugural member of the Mayor’s new Jobs Task Force.
I have the good of the city and our people as my focus. When elected, I will passionately commit to bettering our community.
I am running for city council to create a welcoming environment where residents want to live, work and see their businesses flourish. It’s important to have an inclusive community where all people feel accepted. Over the past 4 years, I have addressed the concerns of our community. I will continue to listen and drive change as a city council member. My goals are to find solutions for homelessness and continue the active engagement between the city, its neighbors, the school district and Green River College.
I know how to work well with others to make progress. As a school board member, I was influential in bringing a bond, supported by voters, for two new elementary schools and six replacement schools. These facilities will make a difference in the lives of children, educators, and the surrounding community.
I've been a resident of Auburn for fourteen years. I ask for your vote.
