Perspective

I am a devoted leader with active community involvement and extensive life experience that enables me to offer an important perspective to City Council.

I am a single mom raising four bright and beautiful daughters with progressive family values. Many of you have seen them by my side or out in front of me volunteering, marching, and ringing doorbells for an array of community organizations and causes. With a degree in elementary education, I am also a teacher at Bellingham Cooperative School where I’m blessed with the opportunity to support kids and their families alongside my partner, Alicia and her mother, director of BCS, Heidi Alford.

My fire has been fueled to give back to my community... 

I have a radical Washington State idealism paired with a down-home Oklahoma practicality for getting things done. I would be honored to use my strengths to help my neighbors realize an even better Bellingham for all.
