What I love about Wilton.

As a kid I couldn’t wait to leave town and go off to college and then after college and starting a family there’s no place I wanted to be except here in Wilton - it’s home.   There are so many others whom have grown up here and moved back to raise their families - it’s truly wonderful.  A true hometown feel

Why I want to serve our great town.

Because I can- my children are grown & flown and I have the time & energy to dedicate to serve the residents of Wilton - it would be my honor to do so
