Before this, I served in elected office as a parks commissioner for 12 years and I was the executive director of City Club of Tacoma, where I also helped put on civic events and moderated debates. I deeply enjoy this work. I think of these candidate interviews as a public service to the community. I don’t get paid for this. I’m curious about these candidates as much as you are. Forums and debates are great. But this kind of conversation gives you a different sense of the candidates. I think it’s so interesting to hear candidates speak without a timer. Ok, quick overview of my rules: When I choose a race to cover, I email an invitation to every candidate in the race. I ask every candidate in the race the same set questions, though sometimes I asked some clarification questions depending on their answers. No one got the questions in advance and since I airing them all at once, no one was able to listen ahead. If you enjoy this interview, please check out the interviews with the other candidates at citizentacoma.com or in your podcast app. And don’t forget to vote! Ballots are mailed in mid-October and the primary is November 4.
