Portland needs

Decisive Action.

As an experienced engineering manager & community organizer, I’m ready to tackle Portland’s problems:

  • As the Chair of the Joint Office’s inaugural Budget Advisory Committee, I raised the red flag over our unaccountable and ineffective homelessness response. I’m committed to ending Portland’s homelessness & housing crises.

  • As a straphanger, cyclist and organizer concerned about our climate crisis, I’m committed to pouring the concrete required to make our streets clean & safe.

  • As a dedicated good-governance advocate, I’ve fought to preserve access to public records and protect community input on Multnomah County’s $4 billion+ budget. I’m committed to ensuring our government is accountable and engaged.

Enough is enough. We need a problem-solver ready to take action.

Together, We Can Do Better.
