I am a professional design and branding specialist who has lived in Harvard for four years with my husband Cole and our three young children. I have a service and governing-oriented mindset and seek to use it for the benefit of our special town. Serving as a library trustee appeals to me because the library is a cornerstone of my family and our community, providing for each one of us at every life stage and income level.
I bring unique skills at this moment in time to the library, which is currently at work on a signage project to improve our navigability and experiences within the building. I am excited to share my professional expertise to benefit the library in a way that will have an impact for years to come. I hope to save Harvard money throughout the process and ensure we end up with an excellent signage system within budget. I am equally enthusiastic to put myself to work on the library’s more granular needs, such as ensuring certifications, and to apply myself to the bigger-picture long-term plans of a dynamic and essential institution that we all value.
I believe my dedication to and proven success on teams, my high energy, and my fresh perspective will make me an excellent trustee. Please vote for me on May 8 to serve you in this role..
