I care deeply about justice and my community. I'll continue this commitment as a judge. I've practiced civil and criminal law, tried 300 Superior Court trials and argued dozens of appeals. As a prosecutor for 26 years, for King County and the attorney general, I've protected community safety and defendants' rights.
Courts are for the people.
Courts should be user-friendly and accountable. Innovations like Drug Court, Mental Health Court, civil mediation and increased use of technology can save taxpayers' money and enhance justice. I'm a proven leader and problem-solver committed to helping courts serve the public effectively and efficiently.
