As your Councilmember, I’ll ensure the needs of SeaTac constituents will be first. With your vote, I will continue to advocate for safety and high-quality, comprehensive age-friendly services for children, youth and senior citizens. I will seek solutions to improve our city's infrastructure, improve our transportation systems and address challenges around accessibility.

As the daughter of Ethiopian refugees, I have experienced the struggles that many residents face. SeaTac deserves a strong economy that celebrates diversity, natural resources and small businesses. Affordable housing, transportation access and community safety are issues that need to be addressed with compassion and respect. I am committed to serve and amplify the voices of all our residents so that policies benefit our community now and for generations to come.

Endorsements: King County Young Democrats, 33rd LD Democrats, Senator Joe Nguyen, King County Councilmember Gossett and many others. I would be honored to have your vote.

With more than 30 years in public service, I am uniquely qualified to address the public safety concerns of SeaTac.  As Public Safety Committee Chair, I presented initiatives to Congress addressing Human Trafficking, Opioid Abuse, and Gun Violence!  Public Safety is my Top Priority, and I will continue to work with our First Responders to maintain/improve our Police, Fire, and Medical services.

Our airport proximity creates economic benefits but also creates significant health and environmental impacts.  I am a strong proponent of the quiet skies movement, ultrafine particulate studies, and alternate airport siting initiatives.  I am currently producing a feature documentary addressing the impacts of airport operations on our neighborhoods.

To Improve our quality of life, I will continue to support an aggressive sidewalk program, safe routes to school, and programs for our seniors and young people at our parks, Senior Center, and YMCA. I would be honored to serve!
