Why are you seeking office?
I have lived in Simsbury for 8 years and have enjoyed the benefits of this community.  I would like to participate by giving back in some way.

What experience do you bring to the table?
My experience would have to be the experience of having lived enough years to have good common sense.

What do you feel is the town's most pressing issue?
I think there is more than one — but I would have to say the education of our children, beginning at the earliest age and being mentored, as needed as they progress through the higher grades.

What do you love most about the town?
The sense of belonging and caring for all members  of the community.

What do you like to do for fun?
Spend time with family, activities at the Senior Center, keeping active.

How can residents keep up with you?
