I am not a politician, I shouldn't be here but I am.

I'm a 38 year-old, ex-Microsoft, ex-Wiltonian and since I've lived in Norwalk over the last 7 years, it's become painfully obvious to me that our State Senator has chosen to goad corporate interests, out-of-state developers and quantity vs. quality infrastructure projects over the basic needs of working class people: education, affordability, safety.

I'm going to use this privileged opportunity to galvanize Norwalk into action.
  • Fight shoulder to shoulder w/ the working class for education funding reform, renter first legislation and end infrastructure bloat plaguing CT
  • Activate the next-gen of progressive candidates and voters
  • Eliminate corporate interests in politics & and career politicians as an idea
