Josh and Beth became proud first-time homebuyers when they purchased their home on Elsmere Ave. in Norwood. They are members of Holy Trinity parish. Josh enjoys reading about history and politics, working out, watching sports, and spending time with his family.
"As a prosecutor in Municipal Court, I see firsthand the problems that Norwood faces. I've worked closely with many of our police officers and I know how hard they work to keep our community safe. I also know what an asset our city has in our police and firefighters. As a recent first-time homebuyer, I know how important it is to a community to have such well respected public services. As a Council member, I intend to bring common sense and fiscal responsibility to the issues facing Norwood."
