This year voters in East Lyme have an opportunity to choose a first selectman who is exceptionally qualified to hold the position. Camille Alberti is the current chairman of the Board of Finance and is now ready to step into the town’s leadership role. She is a principled woman with uncommon character who is eminently qualified for this position, including diverse professional experiences as a small business owner, director of finance and as a Fortune 500 company consultant.

She works tirelessly for the town – frankly, more than anyone I have known. And I know this firsthand, having worked beside her on the Board of Finance. Camille gives honest answers, and if she does not know the answer, she will find out and get back to you.

While it is great to be a nice person and be well-known, East Lyme residents deserve so much more from their leader. Having this job is more than a popularity contest for Camille. She truly understands the meaning of service. We are so fortunate to have this most capable and dedicated woman as our leader. Camille is the real deal!
