I moved to New Hampshire over 12 years ago with $400 in my pocket and a 1997 Honda Accord with 6 (probably more) oil leaks. Since then I have started a family, started a business, and begun to focus more on giving back than moving up. New Hampshire is a wonderful state and has afforded me and my family limitless opportunity. These advancements did not come without hard work, determination, and a few random acts of kindness. In January of 2023 my son was born and had emergency transportation to Children's Hospital at Dartmouth. That was an eye opening experience on many levels and the impact that has had on my resolve cannot be understated. I learned quickly that life is short and we must maximize the amount of good we can do in it. My day-to-day is spent keeping our childcare center running and keeping up with my son. We cherish our home in Weare and while I am new to the rural lifestyle, my only regret is I did not get here sooner. I sit on the board of the Elliot Perry Foundation which focuses on giving back to the community, especially around issues impacting children and young adults. We fund handicap accessible playgrounds as well as support youth sports teams.
