Dear New Canaan Residents,
I am writing to endorse Amy Murphy Carroll for First Selectman. Having had the privilege of collaborating with Amy for the past three years on the New Canaan Board of Finance, I can wholeheartedly attest to her contributions to our community through her unwavering dedication and exceptional performance.
Amy’s professional expertise in finance shines through in her every action. Her deep understanding of financial matters has been honed through years of professional experience, ensuring that she approaches every decision with a well-informed perspective. This knowledge has been invaluable in navigating the complexities of municipal finance, leading to fiscally responsible outcomes for our town.
Amy’s commitment to civility and respect stands as a testament to her character. She understands the importance of constructive dialogue and remains focused on the issues that truly matter to our residents. Amy will ensure town committee assignments, board positions, and leadership roles are open to all citizens — regardless of political affiliation.
It is my opinion that Amy’s professional experience (30-year career covering municipal financings on Wall Street most recently at JP Morgan and Morgan Stanley), and her volunteer experience in town (10 years on the Board of Finance, and her work on the Saxe building committee and Police Department building committee to name a few) make her an ideal choice for First Selectman. I urge you to cast your vote for Amy Murphy Carroll to ensure a prosperous and responsible future for New Canaan.
Sincerely,
Victor Alvarez
