I am a lifelong local resident, recognized as a top 40 Under 40 business professional. I delivered hundreds of homes across Washington before shifting my focus to public service and serving Senator Jeff Wilson during

the 2025 legislative session. My background in housing and policy allows me to bring common sense leadership, rooted in real-world experience, to address Auburn’s challenges.

I am committed to expanding affordable housing through smart zoning reforms, upholding rule of law and civil liberties with Auburn’s court and police systems, and setting our local businesses up for success. While I bring strong ideas to the table, I firmly believe in listening to feedback to ensure every policy aligns with the community, while respecting individual freedom.

With deep local roots and a clear vision for the future, I am ready to step up and serve our community. Learn more at CobiClark.com and please vote Clark this election!
  • I want to fix what is broken in the housing market. Through smart zoning reforms and the utilization of key existing infrastructure, we can unlock more housing development in our city while still preserving the character of our neighborhoods.
  • Inalienable civil rights to due process, free speech, free association, self-defense, privacy, bodily autonomy, and property are under attack from all sides and at all levels of government. It is incumbent upon nonpartisan policy makers to stand in defense of these rights, as they form the bedrock for our civilization. While establishing our own court system in Auburn is a good first step to protecting these rights, more can and should be done on a local level to uphold constitutional rule of law on behalf of our residents.
  • Small businesses, and individual production and innovation, are the foundation of our economic prosperity. I want to create new permitting systems to make it easier for the philanthropic private improvement in public infrastructure, and for community workgroups and individuals to improve their own neighborhoods. I also want to streamline existing systems with new technology to make starting businesses in our city simpler and more efficient.
