Why I am Running
I am running because I have lived through the systems this county controls.
I know what it feels like to worry about housing. I know what it means to rely on community support to get through hard moments. I know how hard it can be to navigate systems that were not built with you in mind.
As a person who was exposed to foster care, food insecurity, and carceral realities early in life, I am committed to ensuring that all youth in King County are truly supported in their development, and that we are actively undoing harmful systemic issues like the school to prison pipeline - any intervention must be centered on redirection toward positive, restorative, and compassionate pathways, instead of reinforcing harmful cycles like youth incarceration.
As a Kenyan immigrant, I also understand how important it is for local government to protect immigrants and refugees and make sure families can access the services they need without fear.
Right now, too many people in our community feel left out or left behind.
I am running to change that.
About Miriam
When I was six years old, my family came to this country from Kenya, and my life has been shaped by the systems we rely on every day. I lived in Skyway and grew up in this district, and have grown alongside it, from many different perspectives - as an immigrant, as a child, as a student, as a worker, as a renter, as a homeowner - District 2 is my home.
