City Council District 6
I’ll be your advocate at City Hall. For residents and small businesses who want safe neighborhoods . For seniors who built Seattle and are being priced out of their homes. For children who deserve clean parks and open community centers .
Experience matters. I’m a youth advocate who’s run a non-profit serving children in South Seattle for 13 years. I own a small business in Seattle employing 65 people. I was the youngest person ever elected to the City Council 20 years ago, and I’ve had a lot of life experience since then.
My husband and I have been raising two children in District 6 for 16 years. I understand the challenges facing our community because I’ve lived them.
As a former Councilmember, I have a proven track record of effective, collaborative leadership . I expanded rate assistance for low-income communities, improved transit, led investment in renewables and provided more affordable housing and human services. I have the experience needed to hit the ground running on day one.
I’m running to create a more affordable, equitable, safe, and sustainable city .
Improving public safety: We need to address vacancies stretching the police department too thin, a lack of diversion programs, and prosecute repeat offenders.
Addressing homelessness: Our city can no longer condone people sleeping in unsanctioned tents in our parks. It’s a public health crisis. We need to engage regional partners to coordinate services and address the root causes of homelessness. We need short-term solutions like modular homes and long-term solutions of permanent, supportive housing including mental health and drug treatment on demand.
Transportation and climate protection: As a lifelong environmental champion, I’ll bring bold leadership to reduce our carbon footprint and address the impacts of climate change in communities most affected. We need transportation choices to improve mobility and more affordable housing in our urban centers.
Housing affordability and basic services: We need housing of all shapes and sizes for people of all incomes with improved infrastructure and parks.
