Our family moved to Falmouth from Portland in 2015. I am running for Town Council because as a parent of two school-aged children, I am deeply invested in our town’s future. Falmouth has some difficult and important decisions to navigate in the coming years, and it feels more important than ever to engage locally and play a role in shaping our path forward.

I spent the first five years of my career working for an NGO supporting HIV/AIDS programs in East Africa. My more recent background is in finance and operations, and I was with Unum for twelve years before leaving in 2024. My wife and I now own a small business in downtown Portland.

My varied experience has helped me learn to work effectively across a diverse range of partners and colleagues. I listen first, value stakeholder input, work hard to build consensus, and emphasize communication and transparency. As an operational leader, I am very comfortable delivering consistent results while remaining laser-focused on cost control.
