I am thrilled to be running for re-election to the NH State House of Representatives for Merrimack County District 8. I enjoyed my first two-year term and I hope you will send me back in 2024! One of the good things with voting for an incumbent is that voters can clearly see my voting record on all issues.
I have lived in Henniker for 21 years. I was born and raised in Manchester NH. I graduated from UNH twice- I received my Bachelor of Science in Medical Laboratory Science, and later went back for my MBA. I work in healthcare management and have a solid background in science.
