My keen understanding of district finances, operations, and policy will be an asset the next two years with logistical and financial planning for a new elementary building, budgeting, and renewal of collective bargaining agreements. With six of nine seats on the ballot this year, I’m confident my experience provides continuity during a time of transition.
I’ve been a School Board Director since December 2017 and am seeking re-election for a 2-year seat to complete two full terms, after being elected to a 2-year and 4-year term previously.Īs a board member, I’ve demonstrated commitment to service, missing only one meeting in 5.5 years, serving as President, VP, Treasurer and a member or Chair of nearly all standing Board committees. I hope to earn your vote in the primary election on Tuesday, May 16. I believe my experience, my enthusiasm, and my ability to work well with other people will benefit the needs of our school district.
If elected to the school board, I will continue to prioritize the needs of our community and remain actively engaged. Also, I mentor students who receive school-approved research positions in my laboratory. I volunteer at an animal shelter, coach rec-level soccer, and serve as a scout leader. Through community service, I have met and worked with many Derry Township residents. My love of learning inspired me to earn a Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering from Penn State, a Master’s Degree in Engineering from MIT, and a Doctorate in Biomedical Engineering from Johns Hopkins University. I am committed to maintaining this level of excellence.Īs an Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Penn State College of Medicine, I greatly value education. Through our involvement in school activities, we appreciate the variety of academic and extracurricular opportunities offered to students at Hershey. My wife and I are long-time Hershey residents with three children enrolled in Derry Township area schools.
