I was born and raised in Elmira and have proudly called Woolwich home for all of my 53 years. My wife, Christine, and I live here, and this community has always been an important part of who I am. Over the years, I’ve built and sold two businesses in Woolwich and today own and manage several real estate companies. I also work as a project manager for a non-profit childcare organization, helping expand local childcare with support from regional funding. My first project was helping bring Elmira’s Mockingbird Daycare back to life - the kind of practical, community-focused work I’m proud to be part of.
