Other facts
As a husband and father, I understand the concerns faced by the citizens and families of East Hartford and Manchester. I am the product of a working class family who worked hard so I could have a better life. I decided that long ago I would commit myself to my community, a community that gave me the opportunity to take advantage of all that our towns have to offer: safe neighborhoods and good schools. For much of the last decade I have worked professionally with the community in mind and I have served in appointed and elected office doing the same.
I am running to be your State Representative because I owe it to you, your families and our communities to utilize my education, experience and energy to serve a greater purpose. I look forward to talking with you to listen to your concerns and ideas about how to make government more responsive to the people who allow me the privilege to serve in elected office.
