What is your hometown?
I was raised in Westford, Massachusetts and I currently reside in Windham, New Hampshire.
What is a day at work like for you?
I like to be organized when I start my day, with a plan of what I want to accomplish. Most importantly though is going into the day with the right attitude. I want to start my day with an attitude that I am going to MAKE GOOD THINGS HAPPEN. I am also very serious about business, but like to bring humor and fun energy to the day when I am not client facing. I am always prepared for the unexpected things that come up each day in our business, so therefore I do not get stressed out when those things pop up.
What do you like most about your job?
I like the idea of helping a client put together the puzzle pieces to be able to provide quality healthcare to its patients with the proper staffing model. What we do is important and that provides a lot of satisfaction.
Do have pets? If so, tell us about them:
I have two Havanese dogs named Wyatt and Gracie. I have a beautiful grey cat named Hazel. And yes, they all get along very well and often sleep together in my bed!
Who is your favorite author, and why?
Stephen King. Not only are his story lines incredible, but he is undervalued for character development and a deep understanding of the human condition, psychology and sociology – which comes out when you are inside the characters head. The movies can’t do it justice.
What’s your favorite type of food, and why?
Indian Cuisine is number one. You cannot beat the unique flavors. Italian is a close second.

When I am driving down the road and there is nobody behind me for a long stretch and someone pulls out right in front of me and I have to slow down.
