Why I am Running
I believe that my views align with the majority of Meeteetse residents. I have 8 years experience in municipal government and professional experience related to many of the decisions that a town council needs to make, including water treatment and distribution, wastewater collection and treatment, streets and sidewalks, and emergency preparedness. I have a record of nearly perfect attendance at town council meetings.
