I am honored and grateful to be re-elected as the State Representative for the 104th District. Your confidence in me is inspiring and I am appreciative of the opportunity to continue representing Ansonia and Derby at the Capitol. Together we have done so much, and there is much more work ahead of us, so I’m ready to get to it. I will take your hopes and challenges to Hartford and promise to be an advocate for everyone in the 104th District.
