Sharon Setzler

It is my honor to put my name as candidate for this position. As a 38 year resident of the Island, I am recently retired as a partner in a successful business. During my career, it was necessary to listen, make good common sense choices, mediate, work with large sums of money, and solve difficult problems. I have served on community boards, commissions and professional organizations on the Island. I come willing and ready to listen to the community and to work with council members and other leaders for the betterment of Mercer Island. I believe I can relate and listen to the heartbeat of the community. Hopefully you will entrust this position to me. I plan to be a RESPONSIVE, FISCALLY RESPONSIBLE, COMMON SENSE, and PRODUCTIVE MEMBER.
