About Me
First and foremost I am not a politician. I am a husband, I am a father of four teenagers and I am a career investor in Snohomish county.
As a father, I know the importance of providing for my family and making sure they have the best possible opportunities in life. As a husband to an incredible child and adolescent therapist, I have a unique understanding of the mental healthcare system and it’s services. I have seen firsthand the challenges that our youth, our teachers, and our communities are facing in bringing forth the next generation of Snohomish County residents. For this reason, I believe that public safety needs to be an absolute priority over the next four years. Whether we’re running, voting, or going about our day, public safety policy in this county affects everyone and needs to be taken seriously.
As a small business owner, I’ve learned the imperative nature of forward thinking policy making and its ties to each small business owner's success. From land development and zoning decisions to taxation and worker incentive. Small business is at the mercy of elected officials that may or may not have any business experience at all.
For the last decade I’ve worked in housing and have helped thousands of Snohomish County residents find an affordable place to live, jobs and careers, mental health services, financial assistance, and other programs that are generally unknown and underutilized. Our county is incredibly diverse, and we’ve only just begun to take into account the individual needs of all communities.
With any issue before me, I will take a granular approach and consider each problem separately. Throwing money at a problem is not a solution and certainly does not take the taxpayer into account. I believe it’s time to take a different approach to problem solving in our community and this can only be done by taking into consideration every person involved from the bottom up.
I am asking for your vote on Election Day because Snohomish County, our home, cannot stand to be stagnant over the next four years.
Thank you,
Christopher Garnett
