I came to the United States as an immigrant and made Massachusetts my home. My family and I moved to Melrose in 2023 while looking for a community with strong schools, good public services, and a real sense of neighborhood.
My background has taken me across different countries, institutions, and communities. Those experiences shaped how I think about public service: listen carefully, understand the numbers, treat people fairly, and focus on practical solutions.



I believe public service is about stewardship: protecting what works, improving what does not, and planning responsibly for the future.
I value individual freedom, equal opportunity, responsible government, fiscal discipline, transparency, and a community where people from different backgrounds can belong and contribute.
