Went to Downtown Bangor for the new tree light show launch this evening. Downtown Bangor Partnership really outdid themselves this year. I love events like this that bring us together as a community. Happy Holidays, Bangor!

I am one of 4 candidates running for 3 open seats on the Bangor City Council in 2024.
With 3 kids in Bangor Schools I am deeply invested in our community. I am looking forward to meeting with neighbors across Bangor to discuss our city and how we can build on what is working and fix what isn't.
