Who I Am

Tacoma is my lifelong home, and the place where I chose to stay and raise my family, start my business, and serve for 8 years as your City Council representative. I’m committed to making it an even better place for all Tacoma families as your Mayor.

As your former Councilman, it was an honor leading on the issues you told me were most important: enhancing our city’s quality of life, providing accessible and innovative representation, and leading with big ideas. I am passionate about building on our past accomplishments to not only confront today’s challenges, but to help our city – and our region! – achieve even greater levels of success.

Outside of politics, I work as a Certified Residential Appraiser and a Managing Broker of a high-volume real estate team that specializes in helping military servicemembers and Tacoma families. I also serve on two local non-profit boards, and am the proud dad of an amazing 3 year old and a goofball rescue dog.

I’m an open book. Call me anytime!
