EAST HAVEN, CT —The state Municipal Election is Tuesday, Nov. 2.

Patch contacted candidates to answer questions about their campaigns.

Occupation: Physician Assistant

Experience: Board of Education

Family in government: No

The single biggest issue in town is ______, and I plan to do this about it:

The ultimate most pressing issue facing our town's education is concentration on post high school accomplishments and goals. Not every student needs to be college bound however every student should have a skill set and goals they wish to accomplish during and after high school. This process starts at a young age with not only grades in core classes but also every day skills. I would like to continue to help the board of education and East Haven school faculty accomplish this.

Critical differences between me and my opponents:

I feel I have an advantage over the other candidates due to having children in the school system and also being an alumni of East Haven school system. I feel we have a great faculty and curriculum and the potential to become a very successful academic town.
