MY STORY
Living in Windham County for over 20 years, I am now serving my 6th year and 4th term on the Brattleboro Selectboard, having held the positions of as Clerk, Vice-Chair, and finally Chair during the challenging year of 2020. I’ve also served multiple years on the Brattleboro Area Chamber of Commerce Board, BCTV Board of Directors, and as a Town Meeting Member. In 2021 I was appointed by the Vermont Senate to serve on the Cannabis Control Board Advisory Committee as the designated representative for municipal interests. These opportunities have given me hands-on policymaking experience and the opportunity to work with and on behalf of the community from several critical perspectives.
WHY I’M RUNNING
In today’s tense political climate it’s often easier to score political points than it is to create sound policies, but the people of southern Vermont deserve a Senator who values action over rhetoric. I have a passion for good policy, and believe it’s time that we got back to the basics when it comes to serving Vermonters, which means listening to all sides, evaluating options, studying past policy mistakes and moving forward together.
The people of Brattleboro have watched me advocate for them throughout my 5 years on the Brattleboro Selectboard, and now I would like the chance to make real progress on issues at the county level that affect working Vermonters. >>>
