Experience: Wilton Planning and Zoning Commission

Family in government: No

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

Growth. I intend to continue preserving Wilton's historical richness and inviting and small-town feel but nurturing thoughtful development and holding developers accountable.

Critical differences between me and my opponents:

I am significantly younger than the other candidates and can speak to the qualities that younger generations (and others moving to Wilton) seek in a place to call home.

Accomplishments:

I was first elected to the Planning and Zoning Commission in 2019 at the age of 21 and have served ever since.

Other issues:

Protecting the natural features of the Town and minimizing the environmental impact of developments; enhancing the local economy by attracting people from neighboring towns to our small businesses.

What else would you like voters to know about you?

I am looking forward to continuing to serve our wonderful town.
