District 9 Committeeperson

My family moved to Metuchen in 1987, after my parents were invited to dinner here and fell in love with the “Brainy Borough.” My sisters and I spent our first summer in Metuchen riding our bikes throughout town, enjoying the Metuchen Pool, BBQing with neighbors, and making lifelong friendships.

Although college and early pursuits took me away, soon after I became a parent, I rushed back to Metuchen with my husband and two young children, and have been a resident and volunteer here since 2014. While some things may look different now from when I was growing up, there is even more to do and enjoy, and more opportunities to participate and give back in a more diverse and dynamic town.

As a Metuchen High School student, I learned the value of volunteerism and I’ve done my best to take those values into my life. I served on the Board Metuchen Human Relations Commission from its reinstatement until 2021. I am proud to be a Democratic Committeeperson in District 9, a role I have held for the last 4 years. As a public school teacher, I have a deep appreciation for the enrichment the Metuchen Public Schools offer our students – both academically and non academically and knowing my own children can enjoy and benefit from them is one of the major reasons I prefer to be here.

All residents are important and I will continue to engage on behalf of my corner of town.
