As a lifetime resident of Beverly, it is with great pride that I serve as your state representative. I have immensely enjoyed serving my hometown in the Legislature and look forward to continuing that service for another two years. I bring to the position my roots of growing up in a working class family with 4 siblings. I am now raising my own family here today with my wife Lisa, stepson Chris and daughter Sophia, and am committed to the city and the well-being of its citizens.

I got my first job at age 10, delivering newspapers around the neighborhood and have been working hard ever since. Through my high school years and after graduation, I worked to save money to put myself through college, and eventually law school. I joined the Army Reserves in 1994, and still proudly serve today. My strong roots in the city of Beverly inspired me to get more involved by volunteering for various community groups and programs over the years.

These combined experiences provided me with invaluable, practical knowledge that guide me as I serve as your State Representative. I work on Beacon Hill promoting economic growth, supporting our public schools, assisting our veterans, improving our transportation systems and providing our citizens with high quality, affordable health care.

I am proud to be supported across party lines by Republicans, Democrats and Unenrolled voters who understand that I support ideas and policies that benefit our city and state, regardless of who proposes them. Although we face difficult economic circumstances in our state and nation, we face them together. And by working together we can create a brighter future for families, our neighbors and our community.

I have lived, worked and volunteered in the City of Beverly virtually my whole life, and am honored to serve its citizens as your State Representative.

I encourage you to contact me with any questions or concerns on issues regarding our city, or to join my campaign team.

Sincerely,
