Scott Bender Background and experience I am writing to announce my candidacy for re-election to Wellesley’s Board of Public Works. If re-elected, I would continue to use my technical, management and town experience as an active, effective member of the Department of Public Works (DPW) and Wellesley Municipal Light Plant (WMLP) boards. This means working to advance technology integration to improve services and achieve Wellesley’s resource and environmental goals in a financially sound manner. Professionally, I am a product manager and engineer with a proven track record of bringing complex products from business plan through product release and implementation. I thrive in a team environment and enjoy finding creative solutions to challenging problems.
