Get StartedAs someone whose children attended Wallingford public schools, I understand Wallingford's tremendous strengths as well as the areas that deserve greater attention. Our greatest concerns are our town’s infrastructure, and that includes the condition of our schools. I commit as town councilor to addressing these needs in a way that satisfies the concerns of the community while setting the town up for a prosperous future. I have proven my commitment to Wallingford by giving my time to the public library, Youth Soccer, and the Boy Scouts. I will advocate for programs that improve the lives of our children and work with town departments and officials to make sure the tools are there to maintain and improve the spaces in which these programs are offered. My education in statistics and research methods and my professional experience in biomedical research afford me an understanding of population shifts and epidemiological data— expertise that will serve Wallingford residents well when we encounter challenges and make plans for the future. I commit to making decisions that are data driven and transparent— I will take the time to explain my decisions and provide the information used in making those decisions. I come with a well-deserved reputation for remaining calm, reasonable, and thoughtful even in the most contentious circumstances. As town councilor, I will serve the people of Wallingford and address the interests and needs of all residents. Learn more

As we transition into this new post-pandemic era, there are many questions about the future that need to be addressed. While we have made great strides with improvements to public parking and the building of our new police station, there are still many gaps not being addressed. I will push for more emphasis on improving the conditions for our youth in town, including educational and recreational opportunities. Learn more
Whether your concern is about our infrastructure, schools, taxes, Community Pool, or the Electric Division, I will use my voice to help my fellow town councilors achieve the results you’re looking for. There is so much to appreciate about Wallingford while acknowledging that there is also a lot of work to be done to move our town forward. I pledge to be a part of the process that assesses our needs and prioritizes the solutions in a manner that is responsible and responsive. Learn more
I am excited for what the future holds and am eager to serve the people of Wallingford. My professional experience in research includes collaborating with people from various backgrounds, with diverse skills, to effectively accomplish the overall goals of studies. I view collaboration as essential to getting things done across all disciplines. When elected, I will bring this unique skill set to a panel of nine individuals, each with the goal of moving our town forward and keeping us poised for the future. To keep Wallingford moving, we will need to invest and we can carefully continue ahead without burdening those with fixed incomes. For example, more can be done to expand tax credits for people with limited means. We can also place increased effort in seeking grant funds used to invest in and update our technological infrastructure. We have needs, but there are many possible ideas and I know that we can find amongst those ideas ones that are best for all of Wallingford. The challenges we face can only be met through smart and creative solutions, and I view this as a welcome challenge. Whether it be investing in our schools or updating the business practices of town departments and public utilities, these are all scenarios that present the possibility of doing some innovative and wonderful things for our town. As a town councilor, I will do what I do best and that is to work to bring folks together from differing backgrounds with various skill sets to frame the answers to our current and future needs with a plan to accomplish our overall goals.
