This year, I began serving as an alternate member on the Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC) Growth Management Policy Board—a place where regional leaders come together to guide long-term planning for housing, transportation, and environmental sustainability across the Puget Sound.
It took persistence to get onto this board—growth is a top concern for every community in Washington—and I’m grateful for the opportunity to bring Duvall’s voice to the table.
As I get up to speed, my focus is on ensuring growth strategies respect our small-town character while supporting smart, equitable development that benefits everyone. That means planning for housing choices, reliable transportation, and protecting the natural environment we all value.
Planning for the future isn’t just about numbers on a page—it’s about making sure Duvall, and our region, remain places where families can thrive for generations to come.
