Strong Community
Smart Growth
Safe Streets
Transparency & Communication
Your Voice. Our Future. Point Pleasant Families.
Our neighborhoods should feel safe for everyone - whether you’re walking, biking, or driving.
Too many of our streets are seeing increased speeding and drivers ignoring stop signs and bike lanes - putting families at risk. This is a growing concern that deserves real attention. No parent should have to worry about their child crossing the street or riding their bike in their own neighborhood, and no resident should feel unsafe on roads they use every day.
I will advocate for practical solutions, including:
Traffic calming measures like speed humps and radar speed signs
Flashing stop signs in high-risk areas
Increased traffic enforcement in our neighborhoods
Conducting traffic studies to identify problem areas and implement targeted improvements
Safer Streets & Neighborhoods
A Thriving Downtown Benefits Everyone
Bridge Avenue is the heart of Point Pleasant - and it should reflect the pride we have in our community.
As property values rise, we need to ensure our downtown keeps pace. That means encouraging well-maintained, attractive storefronts and creating an environment that supports both local businesses and residents.
As former President of the Chamber of Commerce, I’ve had the privilege of working closely with our local business community. I’ve seen first hand how much our business owners give back - from supporting local charities to sponsoring youth sports teams and community events like SummerFest. They are a vital part of what makes Point Pleasant Borough so special.
Now, it’s our turn to support them.
I will work to:
Encourage property upkeep and storefront improvements
Support beautification efforts & establish an arts & culture committee
Explore shared and creative parking solutions
Help make our downtown more walkable and inviting
Promote policies that support small businesses and strengthen our local economy.
A Community for All
By investing in community focused programs, we can create more opportunities for connection, education, and community pride across all generations.
We have a strong and growing community of dog owners, yet no dedicated dog park. At the same time, many of our senior residents would benefit from expanded programming and more opportunities to stay connected.
I also believe we have an opportunity to bring our community together through sustainability and education.
I will advocate for:
Exploring the development of a dedicated dog park
Expanding programs and resources for senior citizens
Supporting initiatives that protect our environment and preserve Point Pleasant for the families who call it home.
Developing educational programs for our youth focused on the importance of growing your own food, sustainability and understanding healthy, organic practices
Our town is growing, and so is our youth population - but our parks and recreation resources are being stretched thin.
Families are feeling the impact, and it’s clear we need to better support our recreational spaces.
I will push to:
Upgrade and modernize our existing parks
Create more multifunctional recreational spaces
Invest in field drainage and turf solutions to increase usability
Ensure our programs can meet the needs of our growing community

Smart Growth & Responsible Investment
With new development bringing additional tax revenue, we have an opportunity - and a responsibility - to invest back into our community in meaningful ways.
I believe in thoughtful, transparent decision-making that prioritizes improvements to infrastructure, recreation, and overall quality of life to our residents.
But most importantly, these decisions should be guided by you - the people who call Point Pleasant Borough home.
Your voice matters, and your input will help shape the future of our town.
I invite you to share your thoughts and priorities by completing my community survey here.
We want to hear from you!
Focused on safer neighborhoods, a stronger downtown, and a community that works for everyone.
Point Pleasant Borough isn’t just where I live - it’s home. It’s where families grow, neighbors look out for one another, and our community takes pride in everything from our neighborhoods to our local businesses.
I’m proud to be an active member of this community, as former President of the Chamber of Commerce, and prior member of the Environmental Commission, to helping out with the PTO, coaching youth baseball, and working on initiatives that bring people together and make our town a better place to live.
I am running because I care deeply about the future of Point Pleasant. As our town grows, we need thoughtful leadership that listens, plans responsibly, and takes action on the issues that impact our everyday lives.
I’m committed to putting our residents first and working to keep Point Pleasant Borough a safe, vibrant place for every generation.
Point Pleasant Borough should be a place where families feel safe walking their neighborhoods, where our downtown reflects the pride we have in our community, and where our investments today support the needs of tomorrow.
Together, we can build a stronger, safer, more vibrant town - for every generation.
