Other facts

I have prior experience in serving on a board of education, as well as other boards and believe my business and finance background lends well to the challenging times school districts face. We must find the best allocation of resources in balancing the costs associated with maintaining Watchung's well-deserved reputation for advancing educational excellence. My children attend Valley View and Bayberry schools. I have been active in coaching both the girls and boys recreational activities throughout town.
