Although I’m new to public government, I’m not new to taking leadership roles. Beginning in high school as a peer mediator trained through Common Ground, through college as business manager of Student Union Programming, I’ve prepared myself to represent my community and use my life experiences for the improvement of the City of Hudson.

Top Issues for Hudson
  • Economic viability: work with state, county and city officials to increase job training, attract more businesses and help to grow those that already exist.
  • Open government, with greater participation and equal justice for all
  • Housing: improve quality of housing, ensure that senior citizens have adequate housing and add housing where possible to help lower property taxes
  • The waterfront: develop Hudson’s waterfront, creating opportunities for all residents to benefit from this resource
Community Activities
  • Vice Chairman, Staley B. Keith Social Justice Center Inc.

  • Hudson High School: class secretary and student mediator trained by Common Ground
