It’s an honor to be serving as your Pierce County Superior Court Judge. The role of our local courts is simple: ensuring everyone in our community has access to justice. As a Judge, my job is to preside over a courtroom that’s professional, respectful, and where the participants can understand and meaningfully engage in the process.
This is the key to a fair and balanced approach, and one which ensures that offenders are held accountable while protecting the rights of every person. With your vote, I will continue this crucial work.
