I have been an active resident of the City of Kent for over 16 years, committed to the development of the communities served by the City of Kent and the Kent School District; the Land Use and Planning Board, the Mayor’s Advisory Team, PTA President, Co-chaired the Diversity Task Force, Aviation Program, and Learning Improvement Team. A Master’s degree in Project Management helps me to assess the impact of various projects and activities on the community. The stresses on the city’s resources require a diligent and strong leader. I will embrace the community through listening to the voices of the residents, business owners, elderly and other stakeholders to build a sense of community. I will address all the needs of the community and actively improve current processes. Commitment, transparency and accountability will be self-evident in all activities within my purview of influence.

As a member of the Kent City Council my experience as both project and financial planner will help me to implement policies that attract high-paying jobs to Kent. Our city is uniquely positioned to grow and this must be done with consideration and protection of the working families and senior citizens who live here. Traffic congestion is also a critical part of our growth challenge and I will be your advocate for common sense solutions.

I have created strong community relationships through involvement with Junior Achievement, chambers of commerce, and serving on the board of my home owners association. I believe our neighborhood councils are the key to building a livable city and I will work to strengthen their role in the city.  

By incorporating my experience into the Kent City Council you will be helping to make Kent the livable city we all want and deserve.
