Previous Offices Held
In November 2023, I ran successfully for my current position.
Top Three Priorities
Transportation, especially expanding public options; Property taxes; Housing
Why are you running?
I'm running to continue to serve my community and to work on my identified priorities and other issues. I hope to use the experiences from my first term to be more efficient and effective in a second.
What is the biggest challenge facing your town/county? The biggest opportunity?
The biggest challenge is to increase the tax base (or otherwise provide tax relief to residents) without fundamentally changing the things that make Bath special. Opportunities are stochastic, and I don't see a big one right now; see answers below.
If you could change one thing about how the town/county functions, what would it be and why?
There's not one thing. While we sometimes get the opportunity to make bigger changes, the job is more about continuously making smaller improvements. Over time, this makes a big impact. I'll take any opportunity that I find and will seek opportunities in the areas prioritized above.
Do you support more development – i.e. more housing construction and business building in your town/county? Why or why not?
A qualified yes, especially for redevelopment. However, each project needs to be evaluated carefully and independently.
