“What I love most about my community are the people. As Councillor for District 7, over the past 4 years I have enjoyed attending council meetings to bring forth the concerns from the residents to better our community. Advocation across different levels of government to improve the quality of life here in my area, and for all Victoria County, is my main goal. I am proud of where I live and the strong community bond we share. Our scenery and uniqueness is second to none.”
