I have always felt a strong call to public service, and have tried to demonstrate this commitment throughout my life in both small and large ways. This was a big reason why I first ran for the Fairfield RTM in 2017. I’ve had the honor of serving our town since that time through both service on the RTM and the Fairfield Parks & Recreation Commission. I believe that my skill set as a professional social worker with over two decades of experience, combined with this commitment to our town, make me an ideal candidate for this position. I will continue to bring to this office a spirit of open-mindedness and a willingness to collaborate with all stakeholders in order to ensure that Fairfield continues to be a vibrant community that can provide great quality of life for all residents.
