I advocated and continue to support green energy. I am proud to be a part of a previous council that preserved precious open space, supported economic development, approved the wind generator and kept taxes affordable. I voted AGAINST sewers and supported a waste water management district.

I have been and will continue to be a conscientious advocate for the Portsmouth taxpayer. I have spent and dedicated my entire life to the Town of Portsmouth.  I ask for your support in November so that I may continue to represent all the residents in this beautiful town of ours.
