Priorities
My Vision for the CourtsMy vision for our courts, and our community, is a judicial system that serves everyone! I am dedicated to providing justice for all, expanding access to the justice system, and seeking feedback from the community on how we can improve our courts and the way they operate.
My Role as Judge
As a judge, I'm committed to upholding the State and Federal Constitutions, laws, and statutes. I will serve as the bridge between the community and the bench (the court). I will be responsible for educating the community on a judge's role, ensuring the public that my rulings are impartial and free from bias, and encouraging transparency in our court system amongst participants.
As a judge, I will provide balanced and informed decisions rooted in my extensive experience in a variety of legal areas, including:
- Appellate practice in both the State and Federal Courts
- Bankruptcy law
- Civil Rights
- Complex civil litigation
- Constitutional law
- Construction law
- Consumer Protection
- Criminal law
- Family law
- Landlord/Tenant Law (Residential/Commercial)
- Personal Injury
- Real estate law
- Securitized trusts
- Uniform Commercial Code
66% (2/3) of Snohomish County's cases are civil cases! I am the candidate with the most diverse experience representing individuals in civil cases, well preparing me to serve as a judge presiding over these cases for our community.
