I was born and raised in Chittenango, NY, and lived in New York City before moving to Wurtsboro six years ago. The beautiful nature and small-town brought me here. My wife and I have been restoring a 160-year-old mountainside farm.

“IT TAKES A VILLAGE.”

I never imagined I’d have an interest in government—until I became a father.

As a husband, a father of two boys (one on the way), and a business owner, I’ve come to appreciate how deeply the Wurtsboro community has shaped our family’s life. From our local library and many children’s programs to barbecues with neighbors and community events throughout the year, I feel blessed to raise my family here.

Our independent contractors, ecotourism destinations, and family-owned storefronts give Mamakating its character. They help our neighbors make a living and give visitors a reason to return. I want to listen to local business owners, understand what they need, and work to remove unnecessary obstacles for people trying to operate a business  here. We can build on the work of groups like the Wurtsboro Board of Trade and the Sullivan Catskills Visitors Association, while exploring how vacant storefronts and land could serve our community. I believe the best ideas will come from the people already doing the work.

How can we, as a small community, rely more on one another? I want to explore ways we can work together to meet local needs, share what we know, and build systems that make life better for our neighbors. I don’t have all the answers. Let’s explore what’s possible together.

I was once told that the health of a community is reflected in its children, as a father I agree. Families need places to gather, children need opportunities to grow, and parents need to know they can count on their neighbors. We’re fortunate to have programs and spaces like the Mamakating Library, Mamakating Environmental Education Center, and the Wurtsboro Art Alliance. I want to listen to local families, support the people already bringing us together, and help make Mamakating a place where every family feels connected and cared for.

Where I stand. 

We are fortunate to live among dense forests, clean water, fresh air and abundant wildlife. Plus, very minimal noise and light pollution. It can be easy to take these gifts for granted, but they are vital to our way of life. We live within a delicate ecosystem, and I want to help care for it so future generations can enjoy as much as we do.
