I’m Running for Town Supervisor — Because Clifton Park Deserves a Strong Voice

I’m running for Clifton Park Town Supervisor because I believe our town deserves effective, forward-looking leadership that works for everyone.

I’m deeply grateful to Clifton Park residents for the bipartisan support you showed in the last election for County Supervisor. That trust and encouragement meant a great deal to me, and it’s what motivated me to step forward and continue serving our community as Town Supervisor.

My top priority is improving how town government serves residents. That means modernizing and expanding online services through the town website—making it easier to find information and complete transactions—and ensuring our town employees have the tools, training, and support they need to serve the public efficiently and effectively.

With 25 years of IT experience across multiple New York State agencies, I bring the skills needed to understand complex challenges and deliver practical, results-driven solutions. I combine technical expertise with a strong commitment to public service, helping government adapt and work better for residents.

Strong, proven leadership matters. Over the last two local elections, I served as Chair of the Clifton Park Democratic Party. In our first election, we made history by electing one Democratic Town Board member. In the most recent election, we were proud to elect both board members—showing growing trust in inclusive, accountable leadership.

I’ve also served Clifton Park on the Planning Board and Ethics Board, and I currently serve as Saratoga County Supervisor. These experiences have given me a clear understanding of how local government works—and how to make it work better.

As Town Supervisor, I’ll listen to your concerns, speak up for positive change, and take action to deliver results. I’m committed to working with anyone—regardless of party—who wants to find real solutions and build a stronger future for Clifton Park.
