Listening First. Leading Together.

Listening First. Leading Together.

Leadership starts by listening.

As part of my campaign for Dane County Board Supervisor in District 12, I’m hosting a series of Community Listening Sessions to hear directly from neighbors about what’s working, what isn’t, and where county government can do better.

These sessions are designed to be small, focused conversations — not speeches or rallies. Each session centers a different community or system, because people experience county government in different ways.

Whether you attend one session or several, your voice matters.

All Community Listening Sessions will be located at:
East Madison Community Center | 8 Straubel Ct, Madison, WI

Time:
6:30 PM – 7:45 PM

Space:
Space is limited to ensure everyone has an opportunity to be heard. RSVP is encouraged.
