What We Stand For

Rooted in Broomfield. Ready for the Future.

As Broomfield continues to change, we have a unique opportunity to guide its growth with care, foresight, and heart. Below are the issues I’m most focused on — shaped by conversations with neighbors, my career in sustainability, and my vision for a city that works for all of us.

🌱 Protecting Our Environment & Open Spaces

Let’s preserve the beauty of Broomfield — for us and for those who come after.

Broomfield’s trails, parks, and open lands aren’t just scenic — they’re essential to our health, climate resilience, and identity. I’ll advocate for policies that:

  • Protect open space from overdevelopment

  • Support native landscaping, tree canopy expansion, and wildlife habitat

  • Invest in clean air and water initiatives

  • Expand access to climate-friendly transportation (e.g. EV charging, bike infrastructure)

We inherit this land, but we also borrow it from our children.

🏗️ Smart, Sustainable Growth

Change is inevitable. The opportunity is making growth equitable, thoughtful, and grounded in community values.

As housing prices rise and our population grows, I’ll advocate that development:

  • Balances affordability with neighborhood character

  • Includes community input at every stage

  • Integrates green building practices and renewable energy

  • Plans and invests in infrastructure with long-term foresight

We can welcome new neighbors without losing what makes us feel at home.

💬 Transparency & Trust in Local Government

Government should be accessible, honest, and accountable.

In a fast-moving world, most people don’t have the time to dig through long agendas or parse policy updates. I’ll advocate for:

  • Clear, digestible updates on City Council decisions and projects

  • User-friendly tools that make budgets, development plans, and policy impacts easier to understand — in plain language

  • Outreach strategies that meet people where they are: through visuals, summaries, and mobile-friendly channels

  • Equitable representation in city planning and decision-making

Trust is earned through clarity, action, and humility.

🧠 Youth, Mental Health, & Public Wellbeing

Strong communities care for their people — body and mind.

I’ve worked closely with youth in Broomfield through mentorship and leadership programs. I’ll advocate for:

  • Accessible youth mental health services and partnerships with schools

  • Safe, inclusive recreation and gathering spaces

  • Support for nonprofits and community groups doing the work on the ground

  • Public health initiatives focused on wellness, connection, and prevention

Our young people aren’t just the future — they’re already shaping our present.

🏘️ Income-aligned Housing & Livability

Everyone deserves a safe, stable, and affordable place to live.

I’ll advocate for addressing the rising cost of living through:

  • Incentivizing affordable housing and mixed-use development

  • Supporting senior housing and first-time homebuyer programs

  • Exploring innovative zoning and density solutions that fit Broomfield’s character

  • Reducing housing instability through partnerships with nonprofits and landlords

Housing that’s aligned with what people actually earn is about more than numbers — it’s about dignity, access, and the kind of community where everyone can belong.

🚦 Transportation & Mobility

Let’s make it easier — and greener — to get around.

I’ll advocate for improvements that make transportation safer and more sustainable:

  • Safer pedestrian crossings, school zones, and bike lanes

  • Expanded RTD routes and last-mile transit solutions

  • Smart traffic planning to reduce congestion and emissions

  • Accessible options for seniors and people with disabilities

Mobility is freedom — and it should work for everyone.
