I want to help implement the Renton Arts and Culture Master Plan. I grew up in a small town with an active live theater and arts center. Renton feels like a bigger version of that small town. After living in Wallingford, Mt. Baker, Ballard, and Kirkland, I'm ready to bring whatever I can to build up the Arts in Renton. I'm especially interested in revitalizing the original downtown area, it feels so much like my home town. I would appreciate an opportunity to meet with people on the Arts Commission to hear their ideas and generate a few of my own.
