Westfield has always felt like home.
grew up just an hour away in Cresskill, a small town in Bergen County NJ, but Westfield has always felt like home. The tree-lined streets, vibrant parks, and close-knit community reminded me of the small town charm I grew up with. It’s what brought my family and me to Westfield 12 years ago.
​
Today, we have three children, three dogs (who occasionally sneak out as I write this), and a deep appreciation for the town that’s given us so much. That’s why I’m running for Town Council in Ward 4, to preserve and strengthen the community we love.
My values were shaped early by a family deeply committed to service.
My father served in the Marine Corps, the FBI, and local law enforcement, while my mother worked as a delivery nurse and Lamaze teacher. They also coached our local sports teams and instilled in me a strong sense of civic responsibility.
​
After a fulfilling career, I found myself reflecting on what matters most. Two things stood out: my love for the outdoors (especially inspired by Tamaques Park) and a calling to give back. Running for Town Council feels like the natural next step. A way to serve, listen, and lead.
My vision for Ward 4 is simple: a safe, connected, and vibrant community.
I’m committed to protecting our green spaces and natural fields so future generations can enjoy the beauty of Westfield. I’ll champion programs that support and uplift our youth, prioritize public safety in every neighborhood, and advocate for the responsible, transparent management of taxpayer dollars. Most importantly, I’ll work to ensure that every resident feels seen, heard, and valued.
​
Above all, I believe in leading with integrity and listening with intention. Whether I’m walking through Tamaques Park with my dad or having a conversation with neighbors on the sidewalk, I’m always looking to learn. My goal is to help Westfield thrive not just today, but for years to come.
