What is the most inspiring part of your job? 

Helping others succeed is inspiring for me.  I have been fortunate enough to spend my career in roles that allow me to help others succeed and improve their processes.

Family, Pets, Home:

I live in Haddam with my husband Craig; I have 3 children - Ethan 21, Alyson 15, and a step son Ryan 19.  I now live in the home that my father was raised; Craig and I have added on to make room for our blended family.  

Hobbies, Skills, Talents OR what do you like to do when you are not working? 

Outside of work, I love to spend time on the water; my husband introduced me to boating about 10 years ago and we enjoy frequent getaways to Block Island and Watch Hill.  I enjoy reading, gardening, and also volunteer on a couple of non-profit boards that help fund local scholarships for high school graduates in my time and another that works to help children with Type 1 diabetes thrive despite their diagnosis.  My children make me so proud and I steal any time that I can get with them.

If you had to eat only one food for the rest of your life what would it be?  That’s a tough one - I want to say mango but the reality is peanut butter.
