Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.
~ Margaret Meade
I have lived in Franklin for almost 10 years and have been very involved in the community through Franklin Girls Softball Association, Rec Basketball, and school activities. I have a Daughter that graduated from Tri-County High School, a Son who graduated from FHS, and a Daughter entering eighth grade at Horace Mann Middle School.
I am running for Town Council because I love Franklin and want to help ensure that it continues to grow and prosper while maintaining its reputation as one of the safest towns in the US. My experience with small and larger businesses, as well as a serving as a director on two non profit boards gives me a unique perspective with regards to resolving issues by weighing all the facts. I am confident that I can bring a new voice and fresh perspective to the Franklin Town Council.
If elected to serve as one of your Town Councilors I will:
I want to hear from you. I am new to the political arena, but not to leadership roles. I listen with an open mind and analyze the facts, before reaching a decision. I’m a quick study - and fully committed to the best outcome. With your support, I will help ensure that the town's fiscal policies continue to enhance our Franklin experience. I would truly appreciate your vote and thank you, in advance, for the privilege of representing you.
