I'm a fourth-generation lifelong Meriden resident who grew up in the 83rd and a Meriden City Council Deputy Majority Leader with over two decades of service to the community.

I’m running because I see every day that too many families are being squeezed, and government hasn’t kept up with the challenges they face. As a public school teacher, I see how rising costs, an unfair tax burden, and underfunded schools make it harder for families to get ahead. We need practical, responsible leadership that puts working families first, invests in strong public schools, and makes sure everyone has a fair opportunity to succeed.

My commitment to the residents of the 83rd District:

• Work to create a fair tax structure where those with the most pay their fair share.

• Public dollars for local public schools.

• Ensure safety and security for all of our neighbors.

• Create a sense of urgency for State support for the basic needs of all—focusing on everyday affordability, accessible housing, and healthy communities.
