Letter of Interest
I have had the privilege to work in the environmental profession as a Senior Environmental
Scientist, specializing in water resources, and a Stormwater Management Inspector in the South
Florida area for a number of years. With this experience, I have recognized a desperate need for
input from the scientific community on the decisions being made at the local level.
Our City of Miami Beach has developed a $500 million dollar plan for mitigating the effects of
sea level rise on our community, yet we do not have anyone with a scientific background
serving as a City Commissioner. I have the educational background, and more importantly, the
professional experience to effectively recognize the areas in which we need to focus our sea
level rise mitigation efforts, and the potential environmental impacts that may result from the
implementation of the existing plan.
