Welcome! I’ve been a proud Kenmore resident since 2019. My daughter just completed 7th grade at Kenmore Middle School, and my son 5th grade at Kenmore Elementary. Our family also includes Maggie, our lovable doodle who’s likely to greet you before I do!
I moved to the Pacific Northwest in 2017 after growing up in the Southeast. What I found here was a vibrant region filled with diversity, energy, and community spirit. When it came time to settle down, Kenmore stood out for its affordability, convenient access to both the Eastside and Seattle, and the small-town charm I remembered fondly from my childhood. I knew it would be a place where my kids could thrive, thanks to the incredible Northshore School District and the strong sense of community among local families.
For 14 years, I co-owned a small business, which gave me firsthand experience in balancing strategic growth with the well-being of the people who make that growth possible. I also served as an Ambassador with the Greater Kirkland Chamber of Commerce where I was honored with Ambassador of the Year in 2023. Running a business teaches you to listen closely, make informed decisions, and be accountable for results.
That’s how I see public service, especially at the local level. Serving on City Council means being responsible for the direction of our city while listening to the voices of every resident.
