| Introduction | My passion is creating a vibrant local community, economically and culturally. I have made microloans through the Western Mass Enterprise Fund and know how to evaluate a project application. I am a retired attorney and worked in environmental protection for California’s Coastal Commission and Public Utilities Commission. Currently, I sit on the board of the Valley Community Development Corporation, a nonprofit that creates affordable ownership and rental housing. I'm concerned that we conserve the natural resources we have in Northampton and that we provide a way to keep families with a range of incomes in town. |
