As a passionate and committed resident, I am deeply invested in the future of our community, and I believe that now is the right time for me to step forward and contribute to the city’s continued growth and well-being. Woodinville is a unique and vibrant city, and like many residents, I value the balance we strive to maintain between thoughtful development and the preservation of our small-town character. I am particularly concerned about the long-term impacts of rapid growth and am committed to ensuring that new development is smart, sustainable, and reflects the needs and values of our community. I also care deeply about the role of education in shaping our city’s future. I support the vision of our local school district and am eager to collaborate with educators, families, and city officials to ensure that our children have access to the resources and opportunities they need to thrive. Equally important to me is the well-being of our senior citizens. Our older residents have laid the foundation of our community, and I believe they deserve to feel supported, valued, and heard. I will work to advocate for services and initiatives that enhance their quality of life and ensure their voices are represented in our city’s decisions. If chosen to serve, I will bring a collaborative spirit, a strong sense of civic responsibility, and a deep commitment to transparent and responsive governance. I look forward to the opportunity to listen, learn, and lead in partnership with my fellow residents and city leaders. Thank you for considering my interest in serving on the City Council. I would welcome the chance to speak with you further and share more about my vision for Woodinville’s future.
