About Me
My Background
My name is Sean McCurdy and I am a lifelong Ellicott City resident and proud husband and father. I am an IT project engineer by profession, but my real passion stems from being a fierce community advocate and youth basketball coach. I am humbly asking for your support to be your next county councilman because I hope to apply a smarter, more coherent vision to development and redevelopment in Ellicott City and Elkridge. I also will work harder to ensure that our county council is more responsive to the public safety and budgetary needs of our growing community. I am committed to always maintaining open lines of communication with you--the citizens--focusing on issues that matter to us, and when progress stalls, bring people together to advance the conversation to make strong public policy where everyone is represented.
