Paula Waters serves the Woodinville community

Alum Paula Waters (’98, Liberal Studies) attributes her strong commitment to public service to the education she received. “I took an urban studies class at UW Bothell, and it sparked my interest in cities,” she said. “The class helped me learn what makes a city great and how it can function successfully.”

In the four years she has already served as a city council member for City of Woodinville, Waters has focused on regional transportation, solid waste management and salmon restoration, among other issues. Read the feature article on Waters’ community service.
