Together today. Stronger tomorrow.
I’m running for Mayor because it's my life's work, and it's time to do it for my hometown.
As mayor I will restore trust, transparency, and collaboration to city hall and work with the public to fulfill the promise of a thriving community open to all.
Let’s get back to basics and make progress for all of Melrose.
Strive to have one of the best school districts in Massachusetts
Deliver city services that exceed our expectations
Make affordability a top priority
Energize our business districts and city-owned buildings for all to enjoy
Melrose should be a city where staff are fulfilled by their jobs
Melrose should be a city people are proud to work for
Open our budget and decision-making to rebuild trust in local government
Build bridges to bring people along through sincere engagement, trusted discussions, and good ole’ fashioned neighbors-helping-neighbors
All perspectives are necessary and welcome
