Woodbridge is governed within the Faulkner Act, formally known as the Optional Municipal Charter law, under the Mayor-Council system of municipal government. The governing body is comprised of a directly elected mayor and a nine-member Township Council, with all officials elected to staggered four-year terms of office on a partisan basis as part of the November general election in odd-numbered years. The council is comprised of four members elected at-large and five members elected from each of the township s five wards. The at-large and mayoral seats come up together for vote followed two years later by the five ward seats.In 2025 a seat to fill a two-year unexpired term is up for election.
Slogan
Woodbridge deserves better
I am running for municipal office because I believe our community deserves strong, accountable, and transparent leadership. I’ve seen firsthand how overdevelopment, lack of infrastructure planning, and unresponsive government can strain neighborhoods, schools, and local services. I want to ensure residents’ voices come first—not special interests or outside developers. My goal is to create safe, thriving neighborhoods where families feel supported and heard. I have years of experience in compliance and administration these roles have required me to navigate complex regulations and solve problems and most importantly listen to the people.
I have previously been awarded the Volunteer of the Year award for my time volunteering at Ross Street School #11. I was part of the PTO at Ross street school for many years serving as treasurer and Vice President.

Provide clear, factual information – Ensure that residents have access to unbiased data, cost impacts, and long-term consequences so decisions are based on facts, not assumptions.
Look for common ground – Identify shared goals (such as safety, quality of life, or fiscal responsibility) and build solutions around those.
Encourage compromise where possible – Propose middle-ground options that address the most pressing concerns of both sides.
Maintain transparency – Keep communication open at every step so no group feels left out or ignored.
