“I am running for Town Council because East Greenwich deserves thoughtful leadership, balanced decision-making, and careful oversight as we navigate challenges that will shape our community for decades. The $150M school construction project requires transparency and accountability to ensure taxpayers receive the greatest value for their investment. I will use my extensive engineering and program management experience to help oversee East Greenwich’s most consequential municipal spending initiative in a generation.
As a member of the East Greenwich Affordable Housing Commission, I have consistently advocated for balancing responsible development with the need to preserve what makes our town special. I believe East Greenwich must regain local control over planning and zoning so that growth reflects the needs and character of our community.
I have lived in East Greenwich with my family since 2013. After graduating from the U.S. Naval Academy, I served as a Submarine Officer for over 21 years at duty stations in seven states and finished my military career as Deputy Commander of the Naval Undersea Warfare Center in Newport. During my Navy career, I earned two master’s degrees in Leadership & Management and Government Policy and taught graduate courses at the National Defense University in Washington, D.C. Today, I am a Project Manager for a large defense contractor working to deliver a four-billion-dollar submarine on time and on budget.
Successful governance depends on proactive leadership, transparency, and a strong commitment to fiscal responsibility. If elected, I will bring the same accountability and results-driven approach that have guided my military and professional career to Town Hall. My priority will be ensuring that East Greenwich delivers on its commitments, respects taxpayers, and approaches every challenge with the careful planning our community deserves."
