I’m running to represent the 46th because I love my neighborhood and I love my neighbors. The last few years have been so hard for so many, and we’ve left too many folks without the help they need. I think we can, and must, do better.

Too many of our neighbors are sleeping on the streets because the cost of housing is too high and because we haven’t provided them with the services they need to get on their feet. Instead of providing those services and the investments in housing infrastructure that are so deeply needed, we inhumanely sweep our neighbors from park to sidewalk to temporary shelters that aren’t appropriate to meet their needs.

Long time residents of Seattle and the 46th district are constantly being priced out of our neighborhood and forced to move further and further away, increasing their reliance on cars while feeling the impacts of climate change every day.

As a young parent, I want a future where my children will be able to afford to remain in the city they grew up in. Sadly, this will not be a choice for our children and grandchildren unless we immediately address the housing crisis.

The decisions we make now about education, housing and land use, transportation, and so much more will shape the future for the next generation. We need to do so much more to ensure we are leaving our city and state better than we found it, for the sake of our children and future generations.
  • Housing: In office, I will work tirelessly to legalize missing middle housing. Broad legalization of missing middle housing at the state level is an essential step to help ensure every community in Puget Sound is welcoming of new residents.
  • Transit: I will fight to invest in building robust public transit systems that eliminates the need for automobiles on a regular basis. It’s a MUST to address the climate crisis.
  • Education: I am a proud product of the public school system, and I believe in its importance in our democracy. Every child deserves the opportunities given by education, but the state legislature has failed time and time again to fully fund education in the state.
Housing brought me into this race. High housing prices push too many families out of their communities or onto the street. Local governments don’t have the resources to fix it, and instead subject our houseless neighbors to inhumane sweeps.

The legislature has an opportunity to rise to the occasion, but made a historic mistake when it refused to legalize “missing middle” housing and in-fill development in areas like the 46th that have good transit, parks, and schools. I will fight to fix this.

Frequent, fast, reliable transportation must also accompany housing. The pandemic hollowed out transit service, pushing people into cars. This is bad for our climate, safety, quality of life and pocketbook.

To extend transit’s reach, we also need infrastructure that makes it easy to walk or bike. As a longtime part of Seattle’s family biking community, I’ve helped families figure out how to ditch their cars. But community groups cannot do it alone. Washington can fund transit, biking and walking. We should start by stopping expanding highways.
I was raised in poverty and have seen firsthand the effect our policies have on individuals experiencing poverty, including food and housing insecurity. I have worked in a variety of industries including tech, health care and education. However, even though I have been employed for the 8 years I’ve been in Seattle, I have had to move repeatedly due to rent increases. My lived experience would make me an effective voice for people who aren’t usually represented in Olympia.
