Qualifications

As a resident of Sharon for the last 30+ years as well as a former member of the Sharon School Committee, the Capital Outlay Committee, the Priorities Committee, the Town Charter Commission, the Personnel Board, and presently a member of the Transportation Advisory Committee and the Sharon Standing Building Committee Selection Committee, my platform is:

I have been active not only at the Town level, but also at the State and National level, and have supported the campaigns of candidates for County, House, Senate, and Statewide elections, including candidates running for Attorney General, Treasurer, Governor, and Lieutenant Governor.  I have organized and hosted fundraisers for many candidates, including for State Treasurer Deb Goldberg, and over 8 years ago — a fundraiser for Michelle Wu, after she had just been elected as a member of the Boston City Council. I have been a member of the Democratic Party State Committee since 2008, as part of the Affirmative Action Outreach Committee (AAOC), and have been an elected delegate to the Democratic National Convention in 2008 for Hillary Clinton, in 2012 for Barack Obama, and in 2020 for Joe Biden.  I have close ties with State Committee members in adjacent towns, including Foxboro, Canton, Stoughton, Mansfield, Attleborough, and Easton.
