A Night to Remember — Meet & Greet on Constitution Day

Last night’s meet and greet at Bistro 150 was more than just an opportunity to share my vision for Oak Ridge — it was a chance to connect with neighbors, hear your ideas, and strengthen the bonds that make our town so special.

I’m deeply grateful to everyone who took the time to come out, whether we were meeting for the first time or reconnecting after many years. Your stories, your questions, and your encouragement mean more than I can say.

It was especially fitting that this event fell on Constitution Day — a day that reminds us of the principles that guide our democracy and the responsibility we all share in shaping our communities. For me, it marked the perfect moment to formally introduce myself as a candidate for Oak Ridge Town Council and to affirm my commitment to serving with transparency, respect, and dedication.

Oak Ridge is more than a place on a map — it’s the people who wave when you pass, the volunteers who show up when there’s work to be done, and the friends who stand beside you in both good times and hard ones. Together, we can preserve what makes our town unique while planning wisely for the future.

Thank you again to everyone who joined me last night. I look forward to many more conversations in the weeks ahead — and to working side by side to keep Oak Ridge strong, connected, and thriving.
