Community Involvement
When not advocating for victims of personal injury, Brian serves as councilperson and vice-president for Media Borough Council - the legislative body of Media. Brian began campaigning door-to-door for the four-year term in the summer of 2005 and was elected to serve as one of seven Council members several months later. Soon after the election, he was appointed vice-president of the Council.
Brian is proud to represent his constituency on matters ranging from street repairs and potholes to local budget issues. In addition to working on the community development and finance committees, he also acts as Council liaison to the public safety committee and arts council.
Even though his community responsibilities require a significant amount of time and effort, Brian believes it's all worth it. Through his own community service, he has been able to set a positive example for his daughters and others as well.
