KEEP WHATCOM CONNECTED

Strengthening the transportation gateways that connect our community to opportunity.

The Port connects Whatcom County to the world through our airport, marine terminals, and ferry infrastructure. Shawn believes these assets should be managed strategically—supporting local jobs, commerce, tourism, and long-term economic opportunity. 

PROTECT OUR WORKING WATERFRONT

Supporting the industries, jobs, and businesses that depend on our waterfront.

The working waterfront is an important part of Whatcom County’s economy and identity. Shawn believes Port decisions should support fishing, marine trades, waterfront businesses, and the family-wage jobs they provide—while planning responsibly for the waterfront’s future.

RESPONSIBLE GROWTH 

Creating long-term public benefit while attracting smart private investment.

The Port should make thoughtful use of public assets to create lasting value for Whatcom County. Shawn supports responsible development that attracts private investment, creates good jobs, strengthens our tax base, and keeps the waterfront accessible and useful for the community.

LET’S KEEP WHATCOM WORKING.

Join Shawn in building a stronger Port that supports local jobs, responsible growth, and a working waterfront for generations to come.
