| A lifelong resident of Livingston County, I was born and raised in Avon, and for the last twenty years have had the pleasure of calling Geneseo home where I reside with my husband Jon and our children Morgan, Ryan and Lyndon.
A THRIVING CAREER
I am honored that our current Assemblywoman, Marjorie Byrnes has placed her support behind my candidacy with her endorsement. I am grateful for her years of service and her friendship.
The knowledge I have acquired over the last eight years in the Livingston County Clerk's Office along with my over twenty years of private sector experience in operations, human resources and services equips me with a unique skillset to serve the residents of the 133rd District.
As County Clerk, I have been involved with all leadership decisions and overseeing the day-to-day operations of the office. This experience has allowed me to continuously deliver the high level of services that our residents have come to expect from the County Clerk's Office. Additionally, my private sector experience has prepared me to creatively and effectively address the unprecedented challenges we all face and the increasing legal complexities that have come out of Albany.
Additionally, my experience as an elected member of the Geneseo Town Board further provides me a unique perspective on government and public service.
Adrienne Martini has served on the Otsego County Board of Representatives since 2018. She chairs the human services committee and serves on the Negotiations and Administration committees. The 12th District she represents includes Oneonta's Wards 3 & 4.

As a four-term elected official, Adrienne knows how important it is that we elect folks who are experienced, practical, and effective. During her time on the Otsego County Board of Representatives, she has worked across the aisle to deliver for her constituents and for the people of the county.

Adrienne knows how crucial it is for the residents in our counties to have a representative in Albany who understands the needs of rural New Yorkers and will work in the Assembly and in partnership with our county governments to deliver for us, regardless of which party is in power.
