Rides: Green Line | Framingham/Worcester Line

A Boston native, I relied on the MBTA to get around growing up, and I continue to live a car-free life whenever possible. I understand the vital role public transportation plays to the people of Greater Boston, the regional economy, and the environment. During the day, I lead research and advocacy to support safe, reliable, and affordable public transportation, as well as broader transportation policy issues including decarbonization, project delivery, and project financing. In this role, I get to collaborate with TransitMatters (TM) on several important issues, including electrification of the MBTA Commuter Rail to transform the way the Commonwealth delivers and residents use regional rail. I am a huge fan of the TM data lab and use the dashboards all the time to inform my work. I come to the transportation sector from a climate change, sustainable development, and basic needs security background, and I firmly believe that getting transportation and transportation policies right can positively impact outcomes across all three areas. The mother of two wonderful human beings, I am committed to doing my part to make their world a better, safer, more equitable place.
