League of Women Voters Questionnaire 2025
What three issues are most important to your constituents, and how would you address and/or resolve them?
With all the changes at the national level, now is a critical time to strengthen our local community and address key challenges. It is critical that we meet the pressing needs of our schools and Town services, the rising cost of living in Brookline, and protect the financial health of the Town. To address these challenges, I will support the creation of multi-family housing near transit to address our affordability and climate crisis and generate commercial tax revenue to support our public schools.

I’m a product strategist in health data and analytics, and my professional experience is focused on vetting investments, building cost-benefit analyses, and getting feedback from my customers and colleagues, skills that I’m excited to bring to local government and solve problems in our community.
