Well it has been a roller coaster to say the least, but I’m headed to the joint committee meeting tonight to finish what we started… wish me luck!

So, that didn’t go the way I was hoping… 🤷‍♀️

I cannot thank all of you enough for the outpouring of support I have received since deciding to run. My family and friends, you have all been nothing short of amazing (& very patient!). We put in a really, really good fight and I have high hopes that some of the issues we talked about find a resolution.

Congratulations to Julie, Jenn and Suzanne - I wish you 3 the best of luck!

When a little birdie put the school committee bug in my ear a few months ago, I had absolutely No idea what I was getting into! It has been a wild few months - exciting, educational and engaging are only a few of the words to describe it.

I don’t know the last time our town (or any town!) had 7 strong, educated candidates ready to give back to the schools in this way - never mind that we are all professional moms. Thank you to these women for being such strong candidates, and continuing to push the conversations forward every chance you got! I wish all of us luck in no matter what comes next.

I’m so happy to be a member of this community, along with my husband and kids. I can’t thank my friends and family enough for the support and help I’ve gotten in the last few months. I hope you guys have enjoyed it, I absolutely did.

I hope this is just the start! Vote #6 on the ballot tomorrow!!!

For anyone who might be new to the page - here’s a clip about my run for SC that I taped with WCAT.

Each election season, WCAT Studios offers studio time to every candidate to record a "Candidate's Message", to introduce themselves to the residents of Winth...

I have admired Julie for years, as a neighbor amd fellow working mom, but even more somsince she joined the School Committee in 2020. Julie has fought tirelessly for our children. I will be proud to work with her in serving our community!
