Why are you seeking elective office?

To help guide the town on a stable path in this time of uncertainty.

The single most pressing issue facing our (board, district, etc.) is _______, and this is what I intend to do about it.

We must do much more to deal with Saint Gobain poisoning our community. Bypassing the monitoring system shows they do not care and we should work to shut them down

What are the critical differences between you and the other candidates seeking this post?

I have the necessary experience and a proven record of working in the best interest of the town's residents.

If you are a challenger, in what way has the current board or officeholder failed the community (or district or constituency)

Describe the other issues that define your campaign platform.

I support zoning amendment 3 in order to prevent future urgent care or hospital developments from shortchanging our tax base. Focusing on a fiscally responsible path toward the future given our current circumstances of record-high inflation.

What accomplishments in your past would you cite as evidence you can handle this job?

During my time as state representative, we reduced the budget $11 million by simply making government more efficient and effective. As a West Manchester Alderman, I was the vice-chairman of finance, chairman of lands and buildings, and I built the city a free dog park with the help of my friends. Previously served as Bedford Town Councilor, served on the conservation commission, historic district commission, helped improve recycling and transfer station layout and worked on improving our budget to keep taxes as low as possible.

The best advice ever shared with me was:

Be yourself, do the best you can, and keep your word.

What else would you like voters to know about yourself and your positions?

I am an open and honest person who listens to and considers, all viewpoints and information before making the decisions that affect our community. You can contact me anytime to discuss the issues and matters that face our Town.
