Statement: I’m running as Independent because our future should be about people, not parties. We need to get serious about economic opportunities in Tacoma. As your State Representative, I will heed the Golden priorities: second chances for those impacted by outdated marijuana regulations, smarter transportation and traffic solutions, ample education funding, aggressive gun control, and land use policies that prioritize green space.

I am a fourth generation Washingtonian whose parents were killed while they defended our country. My passion now lies in ensuring that everyone can achieve their American dream. From Tacoma to Ruston, I’m running to put people first.
