I have been a resident of Wauwatosa since 1997 and homeowner in the 8th District since 2000.  I value Wauwatosa and all it has to offer, from the charming Village, to the many unique neighborhoods that are all connected by beautiful parkways.  I especially enjoy the parks and open spaces of the 8th District, and proud of my involvement in improving Hartung Park and the Menomonee River Parkway.  The extension of the Oak Leaf Trail from the Village to the 8th District has significantly improved recreational connectivity and heath & wellness of the community.
