occupation
IT Consultant
I am currently serving as chair of the Upper Providence Township Council, having served three years of my four-year term. I have gained an understanding of the complexities of municipal government and the need for talented staff and committed volunteers. I have experience in program management and leading IT project implementations.
I am committed to engaging the community in the decision making process, through town halls and open meetings with time allowed for public comment. We have the capability to offer virtual attendance at all of our Council meetings. We publish a monthly electronic newsletter and a yearly magazine. This magazine contains comprehensive updates of on-going activities.
As the chair of Council, I am proud to make a contribution to my community in this leadership role. I have enjoyed my engagement in decision making around budgeting and the services that our budget funds. My top priorities: community engagement; maintain the viability of our township for the future through environmental and economically sustainable practices; public safety, including pedestrian safety and the full funding of emergency medical service (EMS).
