Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

I am passionate, persistent, and prepared.I know that funding our schools and lowering property taxes go hand in hand.Getting things done starts with listening to all sides.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

With our aging society, we need to create opportunities for healthy emotional and physical growth of our teenage youth to keep them off the streets, off drugs and become contributing members of our society. We need to reduce student debt and incentivize our youth to remain in Maine.

By increasing state funding for local schools, we can ensure that our kids get a great education and that seniors and working families can afford to stay in their homes. All Mainers should have access to high speed internet. This common-sense investment will strengthen our community today and grow our economy for generations.

Policies to bring affordable renewable energy resources to our communities must be crafted to combat global warming.
