The Announcement
"I'm running for Portland City Council — At-Large."
I'm running At-Large to listen deeply across our city and help shape solutions that keep Portland welcoming, safe, and accessible for everyone. In the coming weeks, I'll be hosting small House Listening Parties across Portland — spaces to share your experiences, concerns, and hopes for our city's future.

What This Campaign Is About
Six Commitments
to Portland
Housing That Works
Portland should be a place people can stay — not just visit. We need streamlined permitting, responsible density, and housing that people actually need, so Portlanders can remain in Portland.
Keep Portlanders in Portland.
Caring for Our Coast
We can't claim to love this place and keep treating it like a trash can. We need cleaner streets and shorelines, stronger stewardship, and real accountability for protecting Portland's coast and ocean.
Real stewardship, starting now.
Keeping Us Safe
Safety starts with connection — knowing who to call, feeling heard, and getting help before things break down. We need stronger community response systems and better support before crisis becomes harm.
Every neighborhood deserves a lifeline.
Building Our City
A strong city depends on the people who keep it running. We need to invest in workers, families, artists, small businesses, and the everyday systems that make Portland livable.
Build for the people who show up every day.
Growing Our Community
When neighbors know each other, the social fabric gets stronger. We need neighborhood connection, civic participation, and public spaces where people can gather and truly belong.
Let's link together.
A Place for the Arts & Artists
Portland's creative economy supports 18,749 jobs and generates $2.5 billion annually — but artists can't afford to stay. We need a self-sustaining Arts & Culture Fund that keeps creatives in the city they built.
Keep creatives in Portland.

Listening
Parties
Small gatherings across Portland where you can share your experiences, concerns, and hopes for our city's future. I want to hear directly from you — what's working, what isn't, and what you want in an At-Large councilor.
"This campaign is built with you, for Portland. I'm grateful for your voice and your support."
