What inspired you to run for local office?
I am running for Planning Commissioner to help Old Lyme plan for the future.​
Bio and Qualifications 
I am from Greenwich CT,  where I worked in the town’s Land Use Dept for almost 30 yrs. I am now retired and a member of the Old Lyme Open Space Commission. I am an emeritus professional wetland scientist.  My career has been based around land use, planning and resource management.  I have been a water resources consultant for 20 years.  I understand how to look at what we have, what we want, what we don't want and then plan a future that brings those views together in an environmentally sensitve way.
Why should someone vote for you?
I have 30 years of experience working as an administrator in the Town of Greenwich, CT Land Use Department, and I believe because of my knowledge of and experience in land use planning I will bring a needed voice to the Planning Commission.
What’s your favorite place in Old Lyme?
My favorite place is Watch Rock Preserve - and going blue crabbing and birding there.  I also enjoy hiking around Old Lyme.​
What do you do in you spare time?
I am a serious eBirder!
