A Stronger Pottstown Starts With Us

Pottstown is a town of deep roots, strong people, and real potential. But in too many ways, everyday life has become harder. As the federal government continues to pull back—shuttering services, drying up funding, and making it harder for communities like ours to thrive—local leadership matters more than ever. We need new voices, fresh energy, and leaders who are willing to fight for real, tangible progress at the borough level.
My wife and I chose to raise our family here because we saw what makes Pottstown special—neighbors who show up for each other, parents who fight for fair school funding, small businesses that invest in our future. But good ideas alone aren’t enough. We need leadership that doesn’t just plan but delivers—leadership that listens, engages, and builds real solutions from the ground up.
I believe in seeing the humanity in everyone. Our politics have become consumed by division, but what makes communities strong isn’t ideology—it’s connection. When we listen to each other, when we support one another, when we focus on what we can build together rather than what divides us, we create real, lasting change. That’s why I’m running for Pottstown Borough Council, Ward 5—to help ensure that local government reflects the needs, values, and voices of the people who live here.
That vision has earned me the endorsement of the Montgomery County Area 1 Democrats, which represents Pottstown. This support reflects a shared commitment to putting people first, strengthening our community, and making sure borough government works for everyone—not just those with power.
That means:
✅ Smart, community-driven investments that keep housing affordable and businesses strong.
✅ A local government that listens first, plans ahead, and turns ideas into action.
✅ A borough that supports its residents—not just those with influence, but everyone.
Good leadership starts with listening. That’s why I want to hear directly from you—your concerns, your hopes, your ideas for Pottstown. Let’s take a walk through the neighborhood, meet at a local park, or grab a coffee at a small business in town. No speeches, no talking points—just a conversation between neighbors about what matters most.
Pottstown’s best days are still ahead of us—but only if we fight for them, together. Let’s get to work.
