I was born <br /> in Boston Massachusetts but moved to North Carolina when I was in High School. My father was <br /> born in Chapel Hill so I have witnessed the evolution of Chapel from the 1960 s. My education <br /> helps because I am a college graduate who has lived in this town as well as other college towns. <br /> My experience is needed because I am a middle class individual who knows what it is like to <br /> struggle making ends meet and know what the community needs from a personal perspective. I <br /> have a Bachelors Degree in Business Management. I have property in Chapel Hill. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> I have watched how much Chapel Hill has changed over the years. I think it is a great Town. <br /> However more emphasis on affordable housing is needed. I want to see that Chapel Hill <br /> considers the less fortunate when it is thinking about new developments. <br /> Contribution to the diversity of viewpoints on this board: <br /> Well I am not sure about the demographics of the board but because I have lived here and lived <br /> in other communities through my lifetime I believe I have a great understanding on what a <br /> diverse community looks kike. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br /> I own several houses in Chapel Hill. <br /> Boards/Commissions appointments: <br />
