Reason for Seeking Public Office:

WHY I AM A CANDIDATE
I believe that "Working Together for Common Sense Results" requires an experienced leader. During the past four and a half decades I invested thirty-two years a classroom teacher, high school principal and Superintendent of Schools in S.A.D. #4. I served nine years as a Selectman in Dover-Foxcroft, five years on the Board of Directors of Mayo Regional Hospital and currently serve on the Board of Trustees of Foxcroft Academy. A lifetime of experiences has taught me that finding solutions requires incorporating the best ideas from multiple points of
view. I look forward to working with all of you as we meet the challenges before us.
