Over the last several years, our city has grown tremendously. A booming economy and rapid influx of new residents has presented us with both opportunities and challenges as we look toward building the Renton of the future.

As your next mayor, I will continue to be your champion on everything from public safety to transportation and traffic to affordable housing. I will also continue to ensure that our city’s budget is meeting our needs and is spending our tax dollars wisely.

I represent a new source of energy and enthusiasm for the City of Renton. Now is the time to build on our city’s momentum and tackle the problems that threaten to hold us back. Now is the time for fresh leadership at City Hall and for smart solutions that move our city forward so Renton can continue to be a place that so many are proud to call home.

Challenges and opportunities facing Renton are issues that challenge the region.  Collaborating with regional governments, non-profits, businesses and local residents, we'll get results on affordable housing, public safety, homelessness, environment, traffic.  
 

I will ensure first responders have resources needed, ensure tax dollars are accounted for, champion business and good jobs, value our parks and trails, and improve transportation choices.  
 

I'll put my decades of leadership in Renton's neighborhoods, businesses, schools and community organizations to work.  My experience with public policies and budgets, plus relationships built locally, regionally and statewide will benefit Renton.
