Candidate Bio
I am running for Village Trustee because:
It has been an honor to serve the citizens of LaGrange as a trustee and I am proud to have been a part of many successful initiatives that have shaped our award-winning village. Our responsible fiscal management has positioned us to be successful in managing difficult challenges. I am committed to work for the residents, business owners, and visitors to continue to make LaGrange the best place to raise a family and thrive. Our movie theatre, parking garage, business development, and flood mitigation plan are some of the positive initiatives that have improved the quality of life for our residents. In the future we will face decisions on succession planning and staff development, development of the west end and zoning code revisions. I believe I am uniquely qualified to continue to lead in moving the Village of LaGrange forward.
