I have been employed with the Town of Acton Parks and Recreation Department 22 years as an Event and Program Coordinator. In the course of my career, I have planned and coordinated over 250 events ranging in size and type. I work closely with the town staff and community as part of my duties. I am involved in multiple committees and also serve on the Advisory Board on the Nashoba Valley Chamber of Commerce and former president of the Middlesex West Chamber of Commerce. I hold an Events Executive Certification and and Event Associate Certification in Event and Festival Management, which enables me the skills and experience to coordinate and manage events that promote community interaction and economic development.
