Working for a Brighter Future

My Story

As your State Representative for the 64th District, I currently serve as the House Chair of the Finance, Revenue and Bonding Committee, and a member of both the Environment and Energy & Technology Committees. I am honored to represent you and work hard each day to be sure you can rely on me to be your voice in Hartford.

Before being elected to the state legislature in 2018, I worked in the nonprofit sector, government, law, and finance.  I have served in all three branches of government.

I have chaired and served on several local nonprofit boards, including Women’s Support Services (now called Project SAGE), the domestic violence prevention agency in Lakeville; the Salisbury Board of Finance, and the Indian Mountain School in Lakeville. I helped raise the money to fund a program in local schools to prevent substance abuse and to build the new firehouse in Salisbury.

I grew up in rural Northeastern Ohio. I earned my BA from Princeton University (1986) and my JD from the University of Chicago (1993). 

The bulk of my professional career was in New York, where I worked as an Assistant United States Attorney for the Criminal Division in the Southern District of New York. Before that, I was a lawyer in private practice at Debevoise & Plimpton and a law clerk for a federal judge. Prior to my legal career, I spent four years working in corporate finance at JP Morgan & Co. 

My husband, Tom Quinn, and I live in Salisbury, where we raised our three children, Maude, Abby, and Max, and share our home with our dog, Nelly.
