Why I'm Running

I'm running because Elmsford deserves visionary leadership that puts people first. As Mayor, I'll usher in a new era of ethical, transparent, data-driven governance. Together, we can turn the page and write a new story, one of fiscal responsibility and record investments in youth programs, senior services, and cultural events that bring us together. From supporting our business community to addressing climate concerns, ensuring public safety to expanding affordability, we'll identify the issues that matter most to you and work tirelessly to implement effective solutions.

Above all, I will listen. Through regular town halls and radical accessibility, I'll ensure every voice is heard. I'll be a Mayor who governs collaboratively, welcomes tough conversations, and searches for win-win solutions. Elmsford's diversity is our strength, and together, we can champion initiatives that allow all residents to thrive, regardless of how connected they are.

The Elmsford I know is innovative and resilient. Together, we can build a future where every generation has pathways to opportunity. A village that honors its roots while boldly embracing progress. A community all are proud to call home, making headlines for all the right reasons. 

Change can't wait. I'm running to deliver the dynamic, forward-thinking leadership Elmsford deserves. To fight for you, and shape a brighter tomorrow for this village that raised me. I humbly ask for your support, so I can pour my heart into amplifying your voice and serving your needs. Because together, we can make Elmsford's greatest days a reality, if we unite with purpose and lead with courage. Our future is now.

I'm running for Mayor because I believe in Elmsford's potential. As a fourth-generation resident, this village is in my blood. I was raised here, educated in our schools, and always dreamed of giving back to the community that shaped me.

But in recent years, I've watched with concern as we've strayed from our core values. The unity that once defined us has fractured. Residents feel unheard as local government fails to adapt to evolving needs. Youth lack opportunity, seniors are being priced out, and flooding is met with band-aid solutions. Instead of making headlines for innovation and progress, Elmsford has at times found itself in the news for less than ideal reasons, with stories that don't reflect the community spirit I know we embody. We're at a crossroads, and the old ways of operating no longer serve us.
