Graceful Leadership,
Sustainable Progress
Hi, I'm Sandy Aldrich.
I’m running for City Council to build a community that is genuinely inclusive and affordable, while making sure our basic city services are so reliable and efficient they feel seamless—they simply work, so you don't have to worry about them. I believe in true transparency and honest, face-to-face conversations. I’m ready to work with you to keep our community rooted in what we love while we prepare for what’s next.
I hope to meet you out on the campaign trail or within our community, and look forward to hearing about your thoughts on the future of Ann Arbor.
My path to Ann Arbor actually started in South Korea. I was just two years old when my family immigrated to Niagara Falls, NY. We eventually found our way to Kalamazoo, the place I called home growing up. I’m a proud double Wolverine (BA and MBA), and it was during my sophomore year at Michigan that I met my husband, Ray.
Ray is an Ann Arbor "townie", born and raised right here in Ward 2. After starting our life together in California, we made the choice to move back to Ann Arbor 22 years ago. We wanted our kids to grow up in a place that prioritizes education, culture, and a progressive spirit.
