10/28/2015 08:00 AMPhil Beckman is a uniquely qualified candidate for selectman and Essex is fortunate to have him.
He is a U.S. Naval Academy graduate and holds two masters degrees (in operations research and engineering management). He recently retired from the Navy after 24 years of service. Needless to say, he is a team player.
His experience in linking strategies to operations would be invaluable in facing the economic challenges of our Connecticut small town.
Mr. Beckman is an 18 year Ivoryton resident. He and his wife, Susie, have two children in our schools. We think he is the right person, at the right time!
