Political History
Here's the good news! I am not a veteran politician, so my political history is really quite new. Aside from being a conservative voter, I have only recently become involved in local politics. My involvement stemmed from the local Republican Caucus, the Plainfield Township Republican Organization in 2000. The PTRO acted as a springboard for me to have a greater impact on our community. In 2002, I was unanimously appointed to the Township Board as the Tax Collector. After a vacancy occurred on the Board, I interviewed and was appointed to the position of Plainfield Township Trustee.
In 2005, I campaigned to retain my seat as a trustee. With a lot of hard work and the support of people just like you, I was hugely successful.
Now again, this is the position I intend to defend. Once successful I will continue to wholeheartedly represent the people of our Township and be your voice in local decisions.
