Han Tran, Washington, Bothell City Council

Han Tran

Han Tran, who grew up in Bothell, is proudly running for its City Council Position 1 in a bid to bring progressive values and modern management strategies to City Hall plus give back to the community that raised her. Han’s immigrant story follows the much lived experiences of many Vietnamese Americans in the Pacific Northwest who fled via boat after the Vietnam-American War. Her family had to start all over in the States with nothing and lived in a low-income, multi-generational, extended-family household. Through her own personal experience with this, she has first-hand knowledge that can help shape policy into community-driven solutions for poverty.

Han is action-oriented and ready to apply transferable knowledge and skills within science, engineering, product management, business, finance, and economics to innovate solutions for affordable housing, mental health crisis response, and diversity, equity, and inclusion. Han is also an advocate for anti-racism ideals at every intersection (i.e. immigrant, seniors, socioeconomic, LGBTQIA+, mental health, physical disabilities, Veterans, religious beliefs, etc.). As the Anti-Racist Communities: Bothell co-chair, she believes that through community engagement and truly listening to the community members, we all can make Bothell a safe haven for our marginalized community, be a people-oriented place AND a prosperous city.
