Considering <br />graduate school for a masters in Public Administration. I currently work administering IT <br />systems at The Hill Center, a small school in Durham. <br />Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br />I have a personal interest in town planning, as it was my focus of study in college. I think citizen <br />involvement is critical in a well functioning and representative town government, and advisory <br />groups like the planning board are a way for citizens to contribute their time, expertise, and to <br />be heard. <br />I came to this town after I graduated from UNC and have decided it s a place I want to start a <br />family. As a homeowner in the Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) I feel it s important to be <br />a part of the conversation about our towns direction, as it affects both the town and those of <br />us just outside its limits. <br />I want to be a part of the process. <br />Conflict of Interest: <br />4
