It has been a pleasure and an honor to serve in Fairfield town government since 2013. I will continue working to keep Fairfield a fiscally sound and desirable place to live, work and raise a family. I remain committed to meeting these goals through careful fiscal planning and investment.

We have a diverse economy and a thriving business community with excellent schools and services. I will fight to protect these assets and help our town to prosper by supporting our schools, libraries, town amenities, economic development and Senior/Disabled Tax Relief. Attracting businesses, expanding our grand list and creating affordable housing are essential to providing excellent value and maintaining affordability.

I am proud of my record ensuring our tax dollars are invested wisely. I am opposed to making misguided short-term decisions which increase long term costs. I am committed to fiscally thoughtful planning which includes appropriate investment in our schools. As Majority Leader of the Democratic caucus I am honored to serve with an outstanding group of thoughtful leaders who exemplify our values and our commitment to Fairfield.

I will be a strong voice for all Fairfielders and work to address the challenges we face in a bipartisan manner. This is essential to good, efficient and responsive government.
