Green Building Architect
Age: 50
Experience and Qualifications:
My vision for San Luis Obispo is one of balance:
A healthy economy, where businesses succeed and employees thrive; environmental
stewardship, to protect our beautiful surroundings and resources; and livable
community, making sure a great quality of life is available to everyone.
I grew up in California, graduated in architecture from MIT in 1990 and moved here with
my husband in 1997. I am a green building architect, a business owner, a parent of two
teenage daughters, and a community leader, having served on several Boards, including
SLO Green Build and the Chamber of Commerce. I will bring this experience and
perspective to the Council.
We do have challenges ahead and I believe we can address those challenges together. I
will prioritize policies and programs to improve housing options and affordability,
promote a sustainable water supply, encourage head-of-household jobs, and implement
climate action.
Our community is strengthened by different backgrounds and opinions. We need a City
Council that listens carefully, and is fiscally responsible; a Council that honors our past,
while planning courageously for the future.
I love this city and am excited about our future. I would be honored to serve on the San
Luis Obispo City Council.
