I am a lifelong Republican and resident of Plymouth County. Born in Brockton, I now live in Bridgewater with my husband Noel and our three children.
My accomplishments as an elected Republican are extensive. I have served at all levels of local government beginning in 2003 when I joined the Bridgewater Board of Health. Later I won my first election to the Bridgewater Town Council, where I served from 2012 to 2014. From 2010 to the present day I have served as one of three Plymouth County commissioners who oversee tens of millions of dollars in state and federal appropriations to strengthen our South Shore communities.
Under my leadership, Plymouth County was the only county in Massachusetts to independently receive and disburse federal funds during the pandemic. Thanks to our proactive collaboration, residents benefitted from $90 million in Covid-19 relief funds which have been invested in infrastructure, education, and other critical resources across Plymouth County.
In addition, I have served more than 20 years in the medical field, coordinating programs and services as well as managing senior offices with oversight over policies, procedures and staff training. I’ve contributed 18 years of service as an ER at Good Samaritan Hospital and another 15 years as a Fire Fighter EMT instructor at Mass Maritime Academy and as an instructor for the National Safety Council in water survival and rescue.
