During yesterday’s prelim, some folks asked if I miss being in elected office. I absolutely miss the people I worked with — the incredible city staff, the neighbors I was able to help, and the difference I could make. What I don’t miss is the ugliness that surfaces, especially around elections. (1/6

After nearly four years, my time as your Ward 7 City Councilor has come to a close. Serving Somerville has been the honor of a lifetime. Together, we’ve accomplished so much—from securing $14M for Clarendon Hill to making our streets safer and more accessible.

As City Council President and Ward 7 City Councilor, I’ve had the privilege of working closely with Mayor Katjana Ballantyne. Her commitment to Somerville is unmatched, and her collaborative leadership has strengthened our community and our government.

I’m heartened to hear that DCR is making some safety improvements to Rt 16 and Boston Ave - an intersection I’ve been focused on and advocating for changes to since becoming a City Councilor. Thanks to all the advocates, our mobility team, and state officials for all your work to make this happen.

A Somerville resident kept hearing and seeing crashes out his window. So he got to work.
