Mukilteo is more than just a city, it’s our community, our home, and a stunning place to live and work, with sweeping views of the Olympics and Cascades over Possession Sound. I love this city, and as Mayor, I want to make it an even better place for all of us.

My priorities are simple: keep our families safe, restore financial stability, bring our neighborhoods together, and unlock the full potential of Mukilteo’s waterfront.

Keeping Our Community Safe Nothing matters more than making sure our families, homes, and businesses are protected. That means ensuring our Police and Fire Departments have the resources they need and making our streets safer with better sidewalks and traffic calming measures.

Getting Our Finances Back on Track Mukilteo is facing serious financial challenges, and we can’t afford to keep running record deficits. We need leadership that will take responsibility and put us on a path toward financial health, starting with a truly balanced budget where our city lives within its means.

Listening and Taking Action Mukilteo is built on the strength of its people, and for too long, many have felt unheard. With 12 years of experience on the city council, I know how important it is for leadership to be accessible, responsive, and accountable. As Mayor, I will be here to listen, work alongside you, and ensure that your voice shapes the future of our city.

Unlocking Our Waterfront’s Potential Mukilteo’s waterfront is an incredible asset, and with thoughtful development, we can make it an even greater space for everyone. I want to ensure that any improvements truly reflect the needs and desires of our residents while bringing more opportunities to our community.

Over the next few months, I look forward to meeting you, hearing your thoughts, and sharing my vision for Mukilteo. This is about building a future together, and I would be honored to earn your support and your vote on November 4th.
