I act carefully and thoughtfully by listening to you as your representative resulting in a great city Bellevue is today. I'm the most trustworthy vote on the Council for public safety, lowering taxes, cutting wasteful spending, and providing real sustainable solutions in housing, transportation, and quality of life.

Bellevue is recovering well from the COVID-19 pandemic. With sound financial management, we have increased funding for public safety to keep the city safe and maintaining essential services and investments without increasing the property tax rate. Our public schools are ranked the best. With a multicultural, diverse, and engaged population, global talents, vibrant businesses, and excellent quality of life, Bellevue is poised for the future!

Working together with you and our partners, I'm ready to tackle new opportunities as well as challenges with collaborative partnerships and innovative solutions on your behalf.

I am accessible, accountable, and transparent. I am proud to be an “American by Choice” fighting for what too many take for granted - “Freedom, Liberty, and Justice for all!” Endorsed by Bellevue Firefighters and Bellevue Police MA and my fellow residents who support “Bellevue Way”, I ask for your vote and your continued trust to represent you.

Bellevue is reaching an inflection point requiring a new generation of imaginative and creative leaders on our City Council.

I envision a Bellevue that is safe and vibrant to live and work in.  My priorities start with addressing the shortage of affordable and family-friendly housing.  We have seniors being priced out of their homes and young people who can’t stay where they grew up.  I’ll demand transportation and transit investment, so our economy can continue to grow, and people can go where they need.  I will improve human services so all Bellevue residents can live full and healthy lives.

As a neighborhood advocate and father, I want to maintain our excellent schools, improve public safety, and invest in our parks.  As a business leader, I want city resources to achieve their best public use.  I value Bellevue’s diverse multicultural community and harmony with nature.  I seek a brighter future for all families in Bellevue.

I humbly ask for your vote and the opportunity to serve. Endorsed: the Seattle Times, King County Democrats, Senator Patty Kuderer, Representative Vandana Slatter, County Councilmember and Former Bellevue Mayor Claudia Balducci, Bellevue Councilpersons Barksdale, Stokes, and Zahn, and the Sierra Club.
