I am running for New Hope City Council because I care deeply about our community and want to ensure that New Hope remains a safe and affordable place to live. Having been born and raised in New Hope, I believe I am the best candidate to represent the needs and wellbeing of our community.

As your next city council member, my decisions will place priority on enhancing the quality of life for all our residents. I believe city government works best when residents are heard, and taxpayer dollars are managed responsibly and transparently.

By working collaboratively with residents, I will strengthen our schools, support local businesses, improve infrastructure, and maintain the services that make New Hope a great place to live.

I am dedicated to the continued success of New Hope, while ensuring that each and every one of our residents feels represented by our local government. I bring to the table a background of experience in community work, budgeting, and public service, and I believe these skills will help move New Hope forward in its continued success.

The issues I am most concerned about include:

• New Hope's infrastructure and street maintenance

• Bringing in new businesses to our vacant storefronts

• Reasonable property taxes

• Maintaining our water quality and public safety

New Hope residents deserve safe neighborhoods and responsible spending with taxpayer dollars. As such, I believe that locally-elected politicians should not collect a salary from taxpayers. I will donate my City Council yearly salary to areas that improve the lives of our residents.

Furthermore, I believe that corporate businesses and private equity firms should be prohibited from purchasing single-family homes within New Hope. I will push to make this nefarious practice stop.

As your next city council member, my focus will be on listening to residents, and making decisions that keep New Hope a strong community for future generations. Let's work together for New Hope. I would be deeply honored to earn your vote on Tuesday, November 3rd.
