About Political
As Scranton City Council President
I am proud of the work I have accomplished while serving on City Council and the key projects and investments I’ve supported across our City.
Together, we:
– Invested $5 million in grants and City funds into our Police Department to provide state-of-the-art technology, a modern fleet, and the equipment and training needed to keep our community and officers safe.
– Directed $22 million toward much-needed stormwater projects in key areas of the City.
– Delivered $26.7 million in upgrades to parks and pools throughout Scranton.
– Implemented responsible fiscal policies that generated $6.6 million in interest for the City.
I look forward to continuing to represent the residents of Scranton and deliver results for our neighborhoods.

My Initiatives
How I will Continue to Work for Residents
As a member of City Council and a small business owner I knew it important to work with members of Council as well as members of City Government to push projects forward that were priorities to our residents. In my last term I am proud of the work that we have completed on our parks. Across our City our 30 parks have many new amenities and have seen upgrades for our families to enjoy. Our City has a number of areas where we can continue to improve the quality of our neighborhoods and if elected I intend to focus on the following:
