Christopher provided the following statement for the Multnomah County voter's pamphlet:

My husband Mark and I have been residents of the David Douglas community since 1976. I have been active working with students, staff, parents and the community. My focus has been to serve the district to the best of my ability and to advance the district goals in preparing the children for the 21st century. The David Douglas School District continues to face many challenges. There are limited financial resources, but at the same time the District must deal with high class sizes, over-crowded facilities and implementation of Common Core and Smarter Balance testing. The District continues to face tough decisions and each school board member will have to understand the implications of each choice so the best decisions for the children in David Douglas are made. I believe I have the experience and education to meet that challenge.

In addition, it is important to have open communication between school and community and as a school board member I will continue to be involved in the community and help foster partnerships between community groups, residents and the David Douglas School District.[2]
