Candidate For Office State Representative
I've lived, worked, and volunteered in Franklin County my entire life. For the past ten years I've directed civic, community, and municipal efforts to connect neighbors and solve problems. I'm a Vermont tech worker who is organized, collaborative, and communicative. I will always return your emails and phone calls.
Empowering the state regulator to lower healthcare costs is the direct path to stabilizing school budgets: We stop tax spikes by fixing how much we pay for our educators' healthcare. We must also demand public audits of state education spending to ensure we better understand what initiatives have the most cost-effective impact and help Vermont students excel.
We must build homes for Vermonters, from starter homes for growing families to right-sized housing for seniors looking to downsize. I'll work to simplify state zoning rules that'll accelerate home construction, and fund the municipal water and sewer infrastructure that makes building homes more possible, lowers costs for home-builders, and protects our natural resources.
