My parents moved to Mountain Lakes in 1967 to raise six children, and my wife, Mary, and I chose to stay here to raise our two children for the same exceptional schools and beautiful lakes. As a civil engineer and local builder celebrating 33 years in business, my strengths lie in reviewing planned infrastructure and ensuring projects are delivered on time and under budget. I have also deeply invested in our town through extensive volunteerism, including leadership roles with the Stickley Museum board and the Medical Needs Foundation. I have proudly channeled this dedication into eight years on the Borough Council, currently serving as Deputy Mayor while working on our public works, lakes, and affordable housing committees. Mountain Lakes is my history and my heart is here. I am committed to preserving its unique character while thoughtfully adapting to current needs.
