Why I am Running:
To Give People a Choice
Farmington Town Board members have often run unopposed, partly due to a widespread misconception about Ontario County’s political makeup that leaves many voters feeling their voice doesn’t matter. I’m running to help change that and ensure all Farmington residents have a real choice.
To Bring a Different Viewpoint
Farmington Town Board members have traditionally shared similar backgrounds and views on governance. I have different life experiences and can offer another perspective that better represents the whole community.
To Be More Responsive
A key responsibility of a town board member is to reflect the community’s needs. That means actively listening—getting out, talking with residents, and using their input to guide decisions.
To Make Information Easily Accessible and Understandable
While Farmington’s website has improved, it remains hard to navigate, often outdated, and lacks a clear explanation of how our town government functions. I believe it should be a more accessible, timely resource that helps residents understand and engage with their local government.
To Find New and Innovative Solutions to Town Issues
With a background in Environmental Science and Accounting, and a creative approach to problem-solving, I can help the Town Board balance fiscal responsibility with quality services and land planning that preserve Farmington’s character.
