District 5

Welcome!

It is a blessing and an honor to serve District 5 here in Snohomish County. I am looking forward to teaming with my fellow councilmembers and state and local officials to incorporate solutions that work for all. My top priorities are encouraging and helping grow more jobs here in our County and District, supporting our Law Enforcement and Firefighters, investing in our local schools and teachers as well as a clean and safe environment for Snohomish County, and lastly, but certainly not least, is traffic concerns in District 5. I will be focusing on and enlightening our state officials to our 5th District transportation needs and improvements which include added capacity and safety on Highways 522, 9, and 2/Trestle.

Council District 5 includes Lake Stevens, Monroe, Snohomish, East Silver Lake, Sultan, Gold Bar, Maltby, Clearview and Index, as well as parts of unincorporated Snohomish County.
