Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I am the daughter of two Greek immigrants and mother of four children. I have lived in Greenwich, CT for almost 20 years and love this community. I practiced corporate law and worked in investment banking for over 20 years. I then ran two non-profit organzations, including a bipartisan legislative non-profit with a 50-year legacy of advocating for Connecticut's women and girls. I am running because I believe Connecticut's biggest problem is its government, especially the financial burdens it places on individuals and businesses. I am also running because I am tired of extreme politics and policies that lack common sense. I believe that we can do better.

What was your very first job? How long did you have it?

What do you perceive to be your state's greatest challenges over the next decade?

The greatest long-term challenge facing Connecticut is its economy and budget. In 2017, the state enacted fiscal guardrails which began to get government overspending under control and reduce debt, but the pressure to overspend continues. I support staying the course on fiscal discpline and:

1. Adhering to CT's fiscal guardrails

2. Reducing income tax rates

2. Reducing excessive government spending

3. Overhauling the regulatory burden on businesses
