I’ve lived in the east, midwest and western part of the United States but Doylestown has captured my heart more than anywhere else. It is the hometown of my choosing and the place I want to retire in. It is this love of the Boro that has motivated me to serve the people of Doylestown. We all value her historic charm, friendly and caring neighbors, cultural institutions, and vibrant downtown. I’ve lived in Bucks County for 23 years, and I want to use my skills and experience to preserve the character of our town and help us face the many challenges that are ahead.
