Vote!

The July 21, 2026 City Council Primary is here, and I’m humbly asking for your vote.

Serving on the Flagstaff City Council has been one of the greatest honors of my life. After coming to Flagstaff in 2009 and building a life here, the Flagstaff CommUnity has shaped my work, my values, and my commitment to public service. As a Councilmember, I’ve worked to advance practical, community-centered solutions on housing, wildfire preparedness, behavioral health and recovery, sustainability, public safety, and the everyday issues that affect the lives of Flagstaff residents.

I’m running for re-election because I believe in a Flagstaff that is thoughtful about growth, serious about affordability, prepared for the future, and grounded in care for one another.

I would be honored to have your support in the July 21 City Council Primary. Please join me as I work to continue serving the Flagstaff CommUnity with a vision of One Flagstaff, United, Moving Forward.
