The single biggest issue in town is ______, and I plan to do this about it:
City Infrastructure and Affordable Housing
Critical differences between me and my opponents:
I am campaigning on Change and Civility. I want to work with other candidates, elected officials, and my constituents to address the problems with our roads and transportation, the Stamford Public Schools, and affordable housing for Stamford residents. I want to see the new companies that are moving their businesses into Stamford contribute directly to fixing those issues.
Accomplishments:
I was born and raised in Stamford. I have worked in the Stamford Public Schools for over 10 years. I've created and worked on extra curricular programs for students which require collaboration with staff, administrators, and parents in order to achieve maximum desired results and growth for the students and the community.
Other issues:
- I want to focus on updating our city's infrastructure and neighborhoods.
- Getting to know my constituents' genuine concerns and working with my colleagues to come up with creative solutions.
- I want new companies that are moving their businesses into Stamford to employ a certain number of Stamford residents.
- I am against any tax increase on Stamford residents.
