I have been a member of the Board of Library Trustees since 2022. I was
\nelected for my first 1\u2013year term in 2022 and re-elected for a 3-year term
\nin 2023. For the past year, I have served as the chair and I also served as
\nsecretary and treasurer in the previous years.
\nPrior to joining the Board of Library Trustee, I have volunteered for
\nvarious capacities in town. I served as a member of the town\u2019s Transfer
\nStation Study Committee. I have volunteered for the PTA since my son
\nstarted pre-kindergarten at Cedar School. He is now in the Middle School!
\nI am a member of various local organizations in town. I have been a member
\nof the Hanover Club since 2022 and became a board member this year, taking
\ncare of the club\u2019s social media. I am a part of the Hanover Pride, which
\nI have helped organize the Pride event every June. I love crocheting and I
\nam a part of Hanover Fiber Club, which we meet monthly at the John Curtis
\nFree Library. I am also a member of the Hanover Women’s club jr.
\nProfessional, prior to moving to Boston to attend graduate school, I was a
\ntelevision reporter in Bangkok, Thailand. Currently, I work as a Senior
\nProgram Coordinator in the Division of Infectious Diseases at Boston
\nChildren’s hospital. I earned a Master of Arts in Multimedia Journalism
\nfrom Emerson College in Boston. And I earned two Bachelor of Arts degrees
\nfrom Thailand, one in Political Science and another in Communications. <\/p>\n
What are the major issues confronting the town which involve your office?
\nPlease express your opinion on these issues and how you propose to deal
\nwith them.<\/p>\n
Funding pressure is the major issue our library is confronting. The
\nuncertainty in federal and state support are also my concerns.
\nThe library, just like other departments in town, has to work with a
\nlimited budget to maintain our current services and also make sure our
\nbudget meet the MAR (Municipal Appropriation Requirement) in order for our
\nlibrary to continue to be certified for State Aid.
\nI will continue to be a strong advocate for our library and emphasize how
\nimportant our library and its service are to our community. <\/p>\n
Why are you running for this office?
\nBecause I love the library! I believe the library is a critical part of
\nour community, especially for young children and seniors. As a trustee, I
\nwill continue to advocate for our library to stay relevant with their
\nservices and materials it provides. Our library isn’t just an archive of
\nbooks. It provides free passes to museums, WiFi devices and streaming
\ndevices that residents can borrow, art exhibits, youth activities, and so
\nmuch more. And it must continue to evolve as technology evolves and trends
\nchange. I would like to continue supporting our library to achieve its full
\npotential. <\/p>\n
