Other facts
I am a Connecticut native, and have resided in Farmington for 21 years, along with my wife and two daughters. I am a former teacher and stay-at-home father, and was active in the East Farms School PTO. In my 6 years on the Town Council, I have advocated for tax relief for seniors, adequate funding for education, ethics reform, balanced budgets, economic development, clean energy, and responsible open space acquisitions.
I will provide a stronger voice for Farmington in the legislature, and will advocate for Farmington's fair share of municipal funding from the State (including Education Cost Sharing grant money and Payment in Lieu of Taxes reimbursement dollars), while providing balanced, thoughtful, and responsive representation to our residents.
