Because of my background I have a wide knowledge
and understanding of the problems faced by
the Town in its efforts to
keep Hollis a vibrant place
that is both
true to its heritage and has the ability to
adapt to changing times.
I have a proven record of service to my community
and the experience and
time to devote
to the demanding, yet fulfilling, job of Selectman.
