Education Graduate of Quakertown Community High School
Experience 4 years on Quakertown Planning Commission, 3 term Quakertown Borough Councilman, former business owner.
Our biggest challenge is addressing the rising costs of electricity rates caused by much higher demand for wholesale power. This is a nation wide problem. The borough is currently investing in renewable energy resources to meet the demands of our community. We will soon complete an electricity generation project at our sewer plant that captures methane and converts it power for our grid. Further, we are in the early stages of planning for a major solar installation that will reduce our power purchasing from outside sources
I have lived in this great community for most of my life. I am Quakertown born and raised and my wife and I raised our family here as well. We love Quakertown! It is my honor to serve on council and I look forward to continuing.
I served for 4 years on The Quakertown Planning Commission and have been on Quakertown Borough Council for 3 terms. I am a former business owner in the borough. I am well traveled and have a strong interest in learning. I want to help lead the town and listen to the residents to determine the best direction for our community.
