About Me

My family and I love living in Edmonds, and we enjoy the strong sense of community here throughout all of our neighborhoods! This is where my husband and I are raising our youngest daughter, and where so many of our friends are. We also love how Edmonds has embraced our community’s vast diversity, and want to be a part of our city’s evolution. These are exciting times for all of us and we have an opportunity to shape the future!

I’m running for office because my life is about service. I want to serve our community, and make sure all voices are being heard and that everyone has a role in being an important part of our growth. I have the proven leadership that is needed to address our most pressing issues and have the experience and skills to work collaboratively on Edmonds’ priorities.

As a current member of the Snohomish County Planning Commission and a recent member of the Edmonds Citizen Tree Board, I’ve been in the position to hear first-hand many of the policy, planning, development, housing, and growth issues that are important to our community. This experience has prepared me to look out for Edmonds community members to ensure that we are adequately addressing our current and future needs. It's important that we take the opportunity right now to identify plans to shape the development in a way that meets the needs of all community members and business owners while protecting our environment and increasing our community's quality of life. 

You deserve a city council member who has a demonstrated history of solving complex problems and has proven that they can bring people together for meaningful collaboration which is focused on finding common ground to create solutions that make sense.

As a working mom and wife, I have decades of experience working in multiple sectors, including both corporate, health care, and non-profit. In my current role as Vice President of Programs for Volunteers of America Western Washington, I work closely with many area officials and their staff, as well as many partners to address the human service needs of our county.

Most importantly, I am running because I love Edmonds and I want to see it work for everyone. I am excited for our future, and I will work hard both to earn your vote and as your council member.

Please reach out. I’d appreciate hearing about what’s important to you and what you too love about our city!
