my hometown / 23
I’m from Lynnfield, Mass.
I grew up in Peabody, Massachusetts and later in Lynnfield. 
Life back then was simple. After school, I played outside with 
friends, watched TV with my family and spent time with my 
four siblings, who I’m still very close to today. My parents 
worked incredibly hard and growing up in a household where 
nothing was handed to us taught me responsibility, gratitude 
and a strong work ethic. While I was in high school, I spent 
most of my time working at a gas station and lifting weights. I 
learned early that persistence and hard work were the keys to 
building the life I wanted.

I’m from South Orange, NJ
I was a Montrose kid — South Orange born and raised, class 
of ‘85. My childhood was spent with the Joyce sisters across 
the street, Gruning’s hot fudge sundaes after school, sledding 
down Floods Hill and ice skating on the duck pond in winter. 
No cell phones, bikes instead of cars — just kids being kids in 
a town that felt safe and alive. Growing up here gave me my 
sense of what community feels like. I’ve spent the last 22 years 
trying to give my own kids the same thing in the same town.

I’m from Bay Ridge, NY
I’m a city girl, having grown up in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, in a two-
family house with my aunt and uncle upstairs. We were part 
of a tight-knit Lebanese community. I loved having complete 
independence to explore the city – Shore Road, 86th Street 
and Kings Plaza – whether it was by bike or subway. For high 
school, I attended an all-girls high school in Staten Island, where 
I formed lifetime friends. It was hard to leave Brooklyn, but 
when my husband and I discovered Maplewood, we instantly 
fell in love with its charming homes, diversity, accessibility to 
the airport and city and small-town feel.
