The skills and experiences that I possess that are beneficial for the office of township supervisor include the ability to connect genuinely with others; effective communication skills; strong administration and management experiences; problem-solving and critical thinking skills; and finally, humility.
As a small, diverse, urban and rural community we face many challenges from an aging and decreasing population, to dilapidated structures and declining infrastructure. The most important challenge is access to the capital needed to effectively run the township at optimum. To address this challenge, focused efforts will be placed on investing and grant seeking to compliment our ever-shrinking general funding.
