When I was first appointed District Court Judge and then elected to retain the position, I was honored to have the opportunity to continue to serve our community. I have pursued justice throughout my previous 21+ years as a Yakima County Deputy Prosecuting Attorney and my many years as a judge. My background earned me the overwhelming support of judges, law enforcement, and community leaders throughout Yakima County. I promise to continue to work hard, to treat all people with respect and fairness, and to give justice to all those that come before me. Thank you for your continued support.
