About Me
Our family fell in love with Westwood and moved to town in 2014. My husband and I have two children, David (attends Thurston) and James (attends Sheehan). We feel deeply connected to our School Street neighbors (including the alumni!) and, more broadly, to other families who choose Westwood as their place to call home.
​
After earning my master's degree in education, I started my career in higher education. Working with students to shape their college experience and plan for their future was meaningful to me.
​
After eight years, I parlayed my skills in adult learning and instruction to a career in corporate human resources. Today, I am a small business owner and human resources consultant. I work with life science companies to attract and retain their workforce. For more details about my professional experience, read my LinkedIn Profile.
​
Community Service is one of my core values, instilled in me by my parents and grandparents. I’m proud of my record of volunteerism and advocacy in our community that began shortly after we arrived in Westwood.
