Stepping Up for Newton Schools

I’m a proud NPS alum and mom, and a community volunteer. I have nearly two decades of experience solving tough problems for communities as a legal aid lawyer and a policy advocate. I know how to bring people together to turn shared values into action.

I'm stepping up to run for School Committee now because our schools are at a pivotal moment. The challenges we face are real, and we can’t afford more of the same.

I'm focused on solutions, not sides. I will protect what works, fix what doesn’t, and keep Newton’s schools—and its future—thriving.

My Priorities for School Committee: 

• Put Students First - Ensure every student feels supported, safe, and valued by meeting their full academic, social-emotional, and mental health needs.
  
• Funding That Fuels Success - Fight for the resources our schools need to support every student and advance Superintendent Nolin’s thoughtful vision for NPS.
• Restore Trust & Strengthen Partnerships - Build strong relationships through clear communication, careful listening, and community engagement.
• Digital Health & Balance - Take a thoughtful approach to technology in our schools – including cell phones and AI – to support focus, mental well-being, and healthy development.
