on the line for the 2-Year Selectboard Seat.

Both steps matter — the oval must be filled in and the name written clearly.

Why I’m Running.

This year, no one filed to run for the 2-year Selectboard seat.

I believe Arlington deserves leadership that shows up. So I’m stepping forward to serve.

This campaign isn’t about politics — it’s about responsibility. When a seat goes unfilled, our community loses representation at the table. I care deeply about Arlington and the decisions shaping our future, and I’m ready to do the work.

Arlington is at an important moment.

Decisions about planning, infrastructure, healthcare access, and community investment will shape our town for years to come.

I’m running because:

  • Every seat on the Selectboard matters.

  • Our community deserves engaged and accountable leadership.

  • Thoughtful planning today protects Arlington’s future.

  • Service isn’t something you wait for — it’s something you step into.

This is a two-year seat, and I am ready to serve with integrity, transparency, and collaboration.

I bring more than ten years of experience in healthcare technology, working with hospitals across the country to implement systems that improve quality, efficiency, and accountability. I’ve led teams, supported complex organizations, and helped institutions operate more effectively.

I’ve been proud to serve and contribute locally:

  • Board Member, Battenkill Valley Health Center

  • Member, Arlington Planning Commission

  • Active in the Arlington Common Community Theatre

Education and Experience:

  • Graduate of the University of Vermont and Champlain College

  • Peace Corps Volunteer in Niger, focused on food security initiatives

My wife, Jessica, our two kids, and I live in the center of Arlington. This is home.
