I was born and raised here in Dexter, Maine along with my sister and brother. We were raised by 2 wonderful, loving, hard working parents, I started working 2nd shift at Eastland Woolen Mill in Corinna when I was 16 while also going to High School before work. I Graduated in '79 and went to work at Dexter Shoe. In '82 I joined a Volunteer Organization called The Dexter Jaycees where I learned a lot about helping people, helping our town and our State. I became President of the Dexter Jaycees in '83 -'84.

I have 4 kids, 3 girls, 1 boy.. 10 Grandchildren 8 girls, 2 boys (this is why I've learned and care so much about Women's Rights). While living down in Gray, I realized, it's like a whole different State, Which needs to change by adding jobs here in district 2, which adds growth and money into our area. I'm also an ex High school football and baseball coach. Like in those 2 sports, it takes a team effort to win, the same way it needs to be a team effort to bring jobs to the area, grow the area and get America back on track and into the 21st Century.

A Wise man once said “We need new blood in the political process, and you are that new blood,” Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders told his supporters following his loss last year in the hotly contested Democratic presidential primary. “ ... It means that, at every level, we continue the fight to make our society a nation of economic, social, racial and environmental justice.”

I'm Running on the issues that effects us all! I've been through the wringer and know what it's like to live paycheck to paycheck.

I'm running to work for all Americans, I will not get caught up in Partisan Politics, That is not going to help to our State or Country. Vote for me. WE can and WILL get it done.
