Bio

Occupation: School Attendance Coach, Portland Public Schools

Occupational Background: Public Education and Youth Advocate

Educational Background: Bachelors, Sociology, PSU

Prior Governmental Experience: Director, David Douglas School Board

I learned from a young age that if you work hard, anything is possible. My experience as the daughter of Vietnamese refugees, decades of community development work, and elected school board leadership, has shown me the disparities many people face. They have also taught me the power of strong communities and working together to solve our toughest problems. East Portland and North Clackamas deserve a strong voice to ensure everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

I will fight for strong public education, affordable housing, equitable community development, and accessible transportation. My top priority is you. I will listen to your concerns and ideas and be your voice every day at the Capitol.
