I'm running for Ward 4

Why I'm stepping up for Northfield City Council, and how you can be part of it.

Northfield has been home for our family since 2005, and I can’t imagine living anywhere else. It’s where we coach kids’ teams, walk the dog around Way Park, and run into friends downtown. That’s exactly why I’m running for the Ward 4 seat on the Northfield City Council.

After eight years on the Park and Recreation Board and a lot of other service around town, I’ve seen how much our decisions today shape the Northfield our kids inherit. We’re at a real crossroads: affordable housing, infrastructure and parks, climate sustainability, and growing our tax base responsibly.

I’ll bring three commitments to the council:

  • Accountability: smart, transparent decisions about public money.
  • Affordability: doing more with less, in partnership with local groups.
  • Accessibility: a council that genuinely listens and shows up.

This campaign will be won neighbor by neighbor, door by door. If you believe in a livable Northfield, I’d love your help.

Sign up to get involved, request a yard sign, or chip in. Thank you, and I’d be proud to have your support.
