Record of Accomplishments

Simply put, I have a proven record of accomplishments and a clear vision for the future.

I’ve successfully managed national and international organizations. I bring considerable experience to local leadership. My participation on numerous Town Committees and as former Chairman of the Board of Selectmen shows effectiveness on public bodies and problem-solving skills. We need to do good planning up front to avoid big problems down stream. Planning and preservation work hand in hand. For example, we have the Historic District Commission; where we preserve the past and plan for the future. We need the same attention to detail with the Shellfish Management Plan; the Wilkes Square downtown revitalization concept; affordable housing; human service collaboration; and energy management. We are planning for land based Wind Turbines and developing an out-of-town Bulk Fuel facility.

Currently, I serve on the Affordable Housing Trust Fund, Commission on Disability, Energy Committee, Harbor Plan Committee, and US Coast Guard Auxiliary. I am forward thinking and have a vision for the future. With the time, energy, and experience needed for the position, I bring common sense, good ideas, and visibility to the process. I love Nantucket and will devote all my time to the Selectman job.
