Some things to know about me:

• I know how to advocate. I was the Executive Director of the Washington Low Income Housing Alliance in the 2000’s, where we fought for (and won) major new investment in affordable housing from legislators in Olympia

• I know how to read a budget and work with dollars. I’ve been building enterprise software for the last 15 years as a product manager at startups and the biggest tech firms in the world.

• I am a lifelong progressive. I led volunteer organizing for John Kerry for President in WA, I’ve raised lots of money for Democratic candidates, and I was a community organizer in New York City before moving to Seattle.

• I love this city. I’ve lived in Seattle for 20+ years, and I want it to be as amazing for my kids as it’s been for me.
