They say that in the insurance business, there is always something new to learn each day. Even after 25 years in the industry, I find myself continuously learning and growing with the job. I don’t claim to know it all, but I do promise to bring every bit of that experience to the table to help you navigate your coverage. I joined the team at Holbrook Insurance Center here in Gilford five months ago, and I’m proud to serve the community I call home.

I’ve always believed that insurance shouldn’t be a transaction; it’s a relationship. My philosophy is to be an advocate and an educator. I enjoy breaking down the fine print and explaining the “why” behind your coverage so you can make informed decisions without a sales pitch. Because I’m licensed in New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Maine, I’m also here to help if you have properties or businesses that cross state lines.

Life Outside the Office

Family is the heartbeat of my world, and we definitely stay busy. Summertime is my favorite season—you’ll usually find us out on the water swimming, kayaking, or paddleboarding. My husband and I also own and operate Race Away Events, which has become a true family and community tradition.

Each summer, we host an annual 50K trail running race that is a total team effort; our daughter, our friends, and even their kids all jump in to help us volunteer and run the event. It’s a labor of love that lets us see our neighbors push their limits in the beautiful New Hampshire landscape.

We’re a family that likes to be on the move, always looking for a new spot to explore. Of course, as much as we love our New England summers, we aren’t above escaping the snow! When winter break rolls around, we usually head south to trade the cold for some sunshine and recharge.

I look forward to meeting you—whether it’s at the finish line, out on the lake, or right here in the office
