Fenwick has been my family's home since 1956; I grew up here and have now retired here.
Like the people I meet, I value our quiet, clean, open, green environment, and how friendly, helpful, and caring our neighbours are. I want to help ensure that Pelham's development and growth occur in ways that complement the essential character of our town.
My work experience has contributed to the development of skills useful in Town Council: listening, responding, communicating results; strategic planning, decision making, problem solving; negotiating; performance management.
In my career, I have been successful in dealing with community infrastructure issues in the past, including housing, transportation, security, safety, electricity, water, communication, recreation, and doing this within budget and within the expectations of the community using the services. This was work I enjoyed, and I look forward to doing more of it here for the benefit of Pelham.
My desire to be on Town Council has also been affected by my experience on Pelham's Committee of Adjustment over the past four years. This has given me valuable insight into the concerns and aspirations of our residents, and the bylaws and standards that guide decisions in the town.
I believe that the best way forward is by listening, proceeding strategically, and respecting our taxpayers' money.
