Upon completing high school, I attended the University of New Mexico for a two-year period. Having spent most of my high school summers working in Maine and thoroughly enjoying the experience, I relocated to Maine after two years in New Mexico to complete my education. I earned undergraduate and master’s degrees in Finance from the University of Maine and successfully passed the CPA exam. I launched my career at MaineHealth, a prominent hospital system in Maine. I ended my 33-year tenure at MaineHealth as Sr. Director of the Accounting Department. I have been married for over 40 years, with three children and five grandchildren residing nearby. In retirement, I prioritize spending time with family, gardening, and traveling. I look forward to reuniting with my classmates this March!
