Maine is struggling with rising costs for families, workforce shortages across essential sectors, and the need to strengthen public education and career pathways. We also have to protect the natural resources that define our economy and way of life. Meeting these challenges requires practical, bipartisan work focused on affordability, strong schools, and sustainable long‑term growth.
In Buxton and Hollis, families feel the pressure of rising costs, long commutes, and limited local services. We need stronger support for working families, better infrastructure, and more opportunities for students and workers. I want to protect the rural character of our towns while improving the everyday conditions that make it possible for people to live, work, and raise families here.
I’m running because my daughter challenged me to help build a better world for her generation. That moment stayed with me, and it’s the reason I stepped forward. I’m an engineer, an educator, and a parent who believes in listening carefully, working collaboratively, and solving problems with common sense. I’m committed to lowering costs, strengthening public schools, and protecting Maine’s natural resources — and I will stay close to this community and focus on results that matter in people’s daily lives.
