Inclusivity and Equality: I am committed to advocating for policies that promote inclusivity and equality for all individuals, ensuring that everyone in New Hope feels valued and respected.
-Governing and making decisions with transparency and openness: Transparency will be a cornerstone of my approach, ensuring the public is informed about all decisions and has opportunities to provide input.
Supporting the New Hope/Solebury library: I recognize the value of the library as a community resource and would work to ensure it has the support it needs to continue serving the public.
-Governing and making decisions that are fiscally responsible: As a council member, I would advocate for budgets that prioritize necessary services while ensuring fiscal responsibility and long-term financial health for the borough.
