Why PPMF: “Pike Place Market is more than just a market, it’s my neighborhood and community.  I can’t imagine living anywhere else and it’s because of the vibrant and diverse nature of this neighborhood.  The Pike Place Market Foundation plays a critical role in ensuring that the people who live and work in the market are supported and feel a sense of belonging to a greater community.

As a resident of the market for the last five years, I’ve seen a lot – including the much awaited opening of the new MarketFront and the frightening shutdown at the beginning of the pandemic.  It was amazing to see how the Foundation responded to support small businesses and people in financial crisis or needing social services.  Even as the market recovers, I know that these resources will still be needed and it would be an honor to contribute to the Foundation’s goal of nurturing a thriving market community.”

I’m a Seattle native, raised locally in Beacon Hill followed by Mercer Island. I recently transitioned to working for my family’s restaurant business, and I am head of growth and operations at King of Dim Sum in Seattle’s international district. Prior to this new venture, I spent five years working at a Seattle-based, national investment bank, Cascadia Capital, as a software mergers and acquisitions investment banker.

My hobbies have evolved over the years, but today I love exploring the different neighborhoods of greater Seattle and enjoy discovering and dining at our local restaurants. I learned to ski during the pandemic, so there’s a good chance you’ve seen me fall if you frequent Snoqualmie pass during our gray winters. In my teenage years, gaming was a huge passion that I almost pursued professionally, but today I’m just a casual gamer who plays occasionally to keep up with friends.

Soon after moving to Seattle, I fell in love with Pike Place Market. I would go there almost every week for the first year I lived in here. I have a passion for community and have done a lot of volunteering with the Ronald McDonald House, various group events with Food Lifeline and Legal Voice. I am also a huge advocate for women of color to have strong interests in STEM. By daytime, I am Product Design Engineer at Oculus VR trying to connect peopleacross the globe. I love to read, travel and eat all the flavors the world has to offer.

It is through community and connecting with others that Pike Place Market Foundation and I have found each other! I am amazed by how much the Foundation contributes to keep the soul of Seattle alive for not just our visitors but for the individuals and families who need us the most. It’s definitely an iconic part of what Seattle is and what resonates with me.

“I am incredibly excited at the prospect of joining the Pike Place Market Foundation board because I am deeply passionate about small businesses, and small business owners. The entirety of my 15 year career in banking has been spent working with small and medium sized businesses, and few things pique my interest more than hearing the story of a business, how it got here, and where it is headed. Living in Seattle and working downtown has provided me with great relationships with Market business owners. The way the foundation supports them, and businesses support each other is inspirational. The way this community is truly the hub of our city is amazing.

This past year I learned more about the work The Foundation does at the Pike Market Preschool, its Senior center, and the Heritage House. I then knew that I wanted to support its mission in the best way possible. I hope that I get the opportunity to join this board to help execute on this great mission, and help the Market grow, and sustain.”

Ashley Hayes is a Seattle University alumni, and a 20-year downtown resident and real estate investor/professional.  She and her family live at the Escala condominiums as one of the first homeowners to move into the building and there she serves as the Chairman of the Architectural Control Committee.

Professionally, Ashley manages a team of 50+ brokers at Pointe3 Real Estate and Seattle Rental Group and has represented buyers, sellers, landlords, and renters in nearly every residential building downtown – needless to say, she is within reach of an extensive and diverse network of downtown residents who also share their love and continued support for Pike Place Market.

Her passion for the Market started as a young girl and carried through her college years, where she lived at 1st and Stewart making shopping at the market a daily habit.  In later years, she found ways to support the Market through her business, and in 2021 decided to formally join the Donor Engagement Committee.  Ashley would like to continue her path in volunteering her time and exploring ways in which she can ignite the community to get more involved in supporting the Pike Place Market Foundation’s mission.

Pike Place Market is the heart and the soul of Seattle. It is a community comprised of so many diverse people, whether vendors, residents, visitors, or people like me that live just blocks away. The PPMF supports that community and works to better the lives of the people in it, or who are touched by it. The sheer impact it has, whether for low-income housing, the seniors it serves, childcare for up-and-coming entrepreneur vendors, or the desperately needed food security help, the PPMF “punches above its weight” in terms of supporting our community. I want to be part of that. I live here, I walk my dog through the market every day, I say “hi” to the vendors by name and support their businesses, and, I only want to become more involved.

I mostly grew up in Eastern Washington (Kennewick), but went to UW for my undergraduate degree. I moved down to Portland to attend law school. I moved back to Seattle in September 2019, choosing to live downtown (Harbor Steps). I now work for Schwabe Williamson & Wyatt, with my practice focused mostly on land use and real estate, although I often handle business issues for developer clients as well.

Upon returning to Seattle, almost immediately, I was interested in getting involved with the PPMF. I have very fond memories of the Market. From 2005-2015, my Grandma lived in the Newmark Tower, with a spectacular view of the Market entrance. Every time I would visit her, we would go walk through the Market, buy some produce from Frank’s or Sosio’s, or a bouquet of flowers and deliver to her door. My uncle also lived in 98 Union, so we would often walk through the Market, enjoying the people, the sights, and the smells.

I grew up in Eugene OR. Graduated from Lewis & Clark College in Portland OR with a degree in Business & Administrative Studies and had the good fortune to have an advisor steer me in the direction of entrepreneurship.  This led me into the restaurant business, where I have been for over forty years.

‘Primarily in management and along the way VP of Operations for the Red Robin chain.  Which provided me the opportunity to travel the country and open restaurants.  When I started with RR we had four restaurants when I left we had forty.  I opened many of those.

Following that, with a business partner, opened the Charlestown St. Cafe in West Seattle in 1991–where our clam chowder recipe originated.

This led me to open Pike Place Chowder in 2003. It has been an enormous success—even from our infancy.  It also showed me what a great community Pike Place is and a community I am proud to be a part of.

Why PPMF: Pike Place is a great community.  The Pike Place Market Foundation is what makes this community whole.  It is what brings all of these uniquely different parts together and somehow…sometimes inexplicably…turns this crazy place into a community that supports one another.  I have, for years, happily supported this work.

As a member of the Community Services Committee for the last two years, she has enjoyed getting to know more about the organizations and the people that the Foundation support.

Before Amazon, Sarah worked in commercial real estate where she developed a passion for livable cities through her involvement with the Urban Land Institute.

Skye grew up in the mountains of Wyoming but was fortunate to travel all over the country throughout her childhood, including a visit to Seattle sometime in the late nineties. The city made a big impression on her, even as a kid, as the sort of place where creative pursuits are valued and rewarded. Skye made many more trips to the Emerald City during college. While the long distance relationship that facilitated those visits didn’t last, her love affair with the city did and she moved to Seattle after graduating in 2009. In 2011 she and her longtime friend, Thomas Marnin, upgraded their friendship to a romance. A few years later they started their handmade toy company, MarninSaylor, in Pike Place Market’s craft daystalls. After six years in the daystalls they were able to open a permanent brick and mortar retail store in the market. Since then they’ve continued to grow; creating new products, hiring more employees, and always finding ways to make their shop fun and engaging stop for market visitors. When Skye isn’t working to build her business you can probably find her taking a bike ride, hiking with her dog, tending to her many houseplants, or perhaps enjoying her favorite activity of all: long walks through the city with snack breaks at local eateries along the way.

Skye’s interest in the Pike Place Market Foundation stems from her time in the market’s daystall booths, where she witnessed the artists and craftspeople taking care of each other in ways big and small. While working in the daystalls she became involved as a volunteer with crafter-led events benefiting the Market Safety Net. After opening MarninSaylor’s permanent storefront and becoming more aware of the larger market community, Skye began to have a greater understanding of and appreciation for the Foundation and the ways in which it supports all sectors of the market. After nearly a decade as a market merchant, Skye recognizes the vital role that local businesses play in the holistic health of the market, and that of its workers and residents. She looks forward to helping the Foundation engage and activate the market’s retail community to further the Foundations’ goals of a thriving and egalitarian market district.

Michele Shaw has been practicing in King County for over 26 years, and specializes in all aspects of criminal defense. For the past 19 years Michele has had her criminal defense practice in the Pike Place Market area and enjoys the Market daily. Michele’s passion in her practice is representing clients with complex mental health issues, and she has the opportunity to do so in Federal, State and Juvenile Court. She is a member of the Pastoral Council for Christ our Hope Catholic Church, which is located at 2nd and Stewart in the Josephinum Hotel. This Parish’s ministry focuses on the homeless population in the downtown area. Michele also enjoys hiking and hot yoga.

Sharon Shaw’s love for Pike Place Market stretches back 32 years. It was then, while in her early 20s, that she took every opportunity available to escape the offices of her corporate property-management job and wander through the Market. It was there that she found a vibrancy and sense of community that was a world away from her day job.

It didn’t take long for Shaw to strike up friendships with the vendors, and she even turned down a job offer from Mike Ruegamer, the owner of Cinnamon Works Bakery. Then an unexpected thing happened: “It was one of those days when you’re so fed up with your job that you just can’t stand it,” she recalls now. Ruegamer again offered her a job. But this time she accepted.

Soon after beginning work at the bakery, Shaw met her husband-to-be, Michael, who was also working at Pike Place, and in 1990 the couple started their own craft line for the Market: handmaking stained-glass kaleidoscopes. The two quit their full-time jobs to focus exclusively on the new business. They joined the Pike Place art community—and also started a family of their own. “As babies, [our two boys] were [at the Market] every time I was there. They would take naps under the table,” Sharon recalls.

From the beginning, Sharon understood the challenges of building a life at Pike Place Market. It requires hard work and a strong commitment, she says, but it also has tremendous rewards. “It’s such a tight-knit community. We’re like a family. We take care of each other and we look out for each other. There’s a closeness, I think, that isn’t in any other work environment.”

Serving on the Pike Place Market Foundation Board stems from a passion for the Market that reaches all the way back to my first visit over 30 years ago.
