Linn County Commissioner
Serving her community has always been at the heart of Jami’s life. Whether it’s helping keep a century-old tradition like the Strawberry Festival alive, feeding the hungry in local soup kitchens, or volunteering with community groups, Jami puts in the work to make her hometown a better place for future generations.
She carries that same mindset to Salem as a Representative. Jami is known for showing up, doing the homework, and tackling tough issues head-on. She fights to cut red tape, protect local jobs, and make government more accountable and transparent — because she knows her district deserves someone who rolls up their sleeves and gets results.
When she’s not on the farm, running her seed cleaning warehouse, or working at the Capitol, Jami loves exploring Oregon’s outdoors. She enjoys hiking and connecting with the communities she serves throughout our district.
Jami understands the unique character of this district and has a heart to fight for what matters most to its citizens. She isn’t one to shy away from hard work — and she believes you deserve someone in Salem who will give 100%, every single day.
“I’m not just running for office—I’m standing up for our way of life. I work for you, and I’ll keep giving my all to ensure our district is heard in Salem.”
