Jay Inslee has served as the chief executive of Washington since 2013 and is currently the longest serving incumbent governor in the United States.

The open seat for governor affords the people of Washington a unique opportunity to more seriously and open-mindedly consider a wider array of political futures.

The results of this election will have great impact on the next era of Washington state.

I aim for this run to insert important issues into the conversation, to raise the expectations of Washington voters, and to hold Olympia accountable to the needs of the people.
