First, a little about myself. I’m originally from Mission Hill, going to school at Mission Grammar until the sixth grade. Later, my family moved to Jamaica Plain, where I finished grade school at Saint Thomas Aquinas. Then, I attended Boston Tech, Boston University and Northeastern University, where I got my degree in business management.
I have earned a living in the private sector for over 40 years. I am looking for a new challenge. And I believe the job as register of deeds of Suffolk County fits the bill. I have managed as many as 50 employees in a union shop environment. The registry has about 28 employees with a budget of $1.8 million. The last 27 years I have been a real estate agent based out of a West Roxbury office. My on-line research on a daily basis of multiple registry sites has given me the knowledge needed to navigate in and around the registry. I am also a notary public with over 20 years of service to people of the Commonwealth. This experience has taught me what a good or bad document looks like.
