On the Campaign Trail for Mayor of Mayfield Heights... Week 8

This week’s Blog is going to be going to be pretty cut and dry. I am just going to post my community service and “resume” so you can learn more about me. If you have not had an opportunity to read my older blogs on the Patch, please take the time to do so, since they give a lot of insight into my personal life. Sorry if this is hard to read- I can not get it to go straight on the blog page. Thank you and as always, feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns on my cell phone 216-780-5762. Enjoy the beautiful weather!
