Other facts

I am only the second person in Princeton's history who has served both on the Township Committee and the Princeton Borough Council. I was both Council President in the Borough and Mayor of Princeton Township. I have also served as Police Commissioner, Public Works Commissioner and Fire Commissioner in the Borough. In addition, I grew up in Princeton, attended local schools, attended Princeton University graduating with a degree in electrical engineering, am a 20 year veteran of the Princeton Fire Department, and have served on more boards and commissions than I can count. In addition I started a patent and trademark law practice in 1973 and have had an office on Nassau Street until 2008. It was one of the largest individual IP practices in the state before we merged with a larger national law firm. I know what it is like to meet a payroll and run a business.
