I was an Assistant State's Attorney in Cook County for over 20 years and now I represent the officers from the Chicago Police Department, as well as officers from the Waukegan Police Department, who are facing, or are witnesses to, allegations of misconduct, as well as negotiating the contracts for CPD members. I decided that I want to continue my service to the community by running for the Lake County Board from the 12th District, which includes Bannockburn, Deerfield and portions of Lake Forest and Highland Park. Representing the citizens of the 12th District and the businesses located within the 12th District is the reason I am running. It is important to me that businesses continue to thrive in the District and that that new businesses are drawn to the Bannockburn-Deerfield area.
