I've called Yorktown home for over 40 years. I graduated from Yorktown High School, raised my family here, and have spent years giving back — as a former firefighter for 13 years, co-owner of the Yorktown Farmers Marketplace, member of the Redevelopment Commission, and the Friends of the Yorktown Library Board. I'm not running to start learning about Yorktown. I'm running because I already love it and know we can make it even better for every resident.
I hope to bring smart, responsible growth to Yorktown that preserves our small-town character while planning thoughtfully for the future. I want to protect and invest in our parks, green spaces, and quality of life for residents of all ages. I will champion fiscal transparency so every taxpayer knows how their money is spent. Most importantly, I want every Yorktown resident to feel heard at the council table — not just developers and insiders. Community. Integrity. Service. That's my commitment.
