Priorities

I have been asked many times what my 'platform' is given that I am vehemently against the partisan nature of politics.  Although the Air Force Values have been a guiding principle in my life of service, if elected, I've included goals for my term below.

Equity

I've spent my career working to eliminate healthcare disparities. In this role, I wold support equity and inclusion to engage all voices at the table when making decisions for our town.

​

It's important that EVERYONE is given an opportunity to thrive in our town.

​

Investing in Education

I strongly believe that education is the key the long-term success of our children. It is crucial that our public education system is well-managed, funded, trusted, and ensures equity and safety for ALL Tigard students. Additionally, supporting trade and technical schools is vital to our educational system to provide an alternative for those who are not interested a four-year degree. Let's work together ensure that every student in Tigard has access to a quality education.

Doing Right By You

I will be a responsible steward of our community's trust and resources as I continue on my path of service.  I will advocate for responsible use of city funds, focusing on transparency, efficiency, and long-term fiscal sustainability

Expanding Affordable Housing Options

The City Council should foster sustainable housing expansion within our community. I firmly believe that the expansion of affordable housing must be meticulously planned and integrated into a walkable community that provides secure streets, and convenient access to green spaces to establish a more habitable and sustainable community for all.

Conserving the Planet

It will be important to continue to maintain our green space, while promoting sustainable growth in Tigard.  We can move forward as a community in many ways, from our investment in public transportation to providing incentives to reduce waste.

Economic Development

Businesses play a crucial role in driving our economy. It is imperative that we prioritize economic development to foster a welcoming community.  The City of Tigard offers exceptional programs that support entrepreneurs and help them establish their presence in our community, I am committed to expanding these programs and attracting more businesses to our city.
