Hi there!

Thanks so much for your interest in our community! I feel so fortunate to live in Whatcom County and am looking forward to the potential opportunity to serve you and our community as a member of the Whatcom County Council, District 2.

For 25 years, I have lived, played, and worked in Whatcom County, and can't think of a better place to call home. I have owned a retail and wholesale business, served our community as a volunteer in our schools and non-profits, supported vital community health issues, and have met so many amazing neighbors along the way.

At home, my husband Jim and I are grateful to live in the Alabama Hill neighborhood. Our two sons, Jackson and Thomas, are in their college years, so we endlessly dote on our two dogs. I love getting to adventure with my family, my friends, and feel most alive after a great hike.

I'd love to learn your story...what matters to you, what is your wish for your family, and for Whatcom County? Looking forward to connecting with you soon!

Warmly,

Elizabeth
