The Hyphen Matters.

The Hyphen Matters.

The hyphen in my last name is more than punctuation—it represents connection.

Kladis-Schiappa brings two names together as one. In much the same way, I believe the Clerk’s Office should bring people and their government together—not create unnecessary division.

My commitment is to build bridges, listen to our community, and make the Clerk’s Office more accessible, responsive, and connected to the people it serves.

The hyphen matters because bringing people together matters.
