|I’m running for office because I believe that a thriving Anchorage is an Anchorage that works for working people.
My policy priorities center on the resources that working folks and small businesses need to thrive: housing, childcare, and infrastructure. Anchorage must have more housing options across the affordability spectrum if we are to staunch the flow of out-migration. The high cost and limited availability of childcare is also a massive burden on working parents — without it, many Anchorage residents can’t go to work. And our city’s infrastructure must be updated in order for every resident & visitor to commute, shop, and recreate safely and reliably year-round. Addressing these core issues will move our city toward a vibrant, people-focused future.- Abundant Housing - Anchorage needs more housing options across the affordability spectrum. We cannot grow beyond our capacity to house our workforce, which is the backbone of our city economy. Our current housing shortage has a direct impact on the many young professionals and working families who want to put down roots in our city but can’t afford the current average price tag of $500K for a single family home. I’ll continue to work for integrated policy solutions that make it possible to build abundant, safe, attainable housing options for everyone — recent college grads, working families, retirees who want to age in place, young professionals, and neighbors transitioning out of homelessness.
- Affordable Childcare - The high cost and scant availability of childcare is a massive burden on working people — and many Anchorage residents can’t go to work without it. Here in Anchorage, the average monthly cost of care for one child is $1400. That's simply unsustainable. It’s time for bold policy moves that incentivize childcare workforce development and properly value the critically important economic engine and public service that childcare professionals provide. I will continue to spearhead the creation of innovative childcare delivery models that ensure the availability of high-quality, affordable care, promote workforce satisfaction, and draw new funding streams into the Anchorage childcare sector.
- Efficient Infrastructure - It’s not sexy, but neither is a new boiler. Both are important in a northern city. Anchorage residents of all abilities, transportation modes, and income levels should be able to move safely around our city to get to work, school, medical appointments, and grocery stores, not to mention access our amazing small businesses and restaurants. And it’s not just transportation that deserves our attention: the health of our port, the declining availability of natural gas, and the deterioration of buildings and public spaces all point to the importance of investing in our infrastructure with an eye toward Anchorage’s future.
- oversees and approves the city budget and school district allocations
- evaluates & confirms mayoral appointments to administrative posts, boards, and commissions
- creates policies related to land use, public health, and safety
- represents the interests and concerns of residents in municipal government
