I'm grateful to have served on TM for over 10 yrs. In that time I've appreciated our Town's commitment to maintaining excellent town services and programs as well as supporting significant capital investments with fiscal responsibility. With another term on TM, I'd strive to continue taking a thoughtful approach to sustaining and making strategic investments in our Wellesley community.
