Meg was born and raised in our community. She attended Chocksett and Houghton schools before graduating from Wachusett Regional High School. Growing up, Meg spent much of her childhood in Clinton, where all of her grandparents lived. After graduating from Stonehill College with a B.A. in History, Meg began working in State Representative Harold Naughton’s office.
Starting in 2017, she entered the evening division at Suffolk University Law School.
Meg has worked with Representative Harold Naughton since 2010. While working for Representative Naughton, Meg has worked on a variety of issues impacting both the district and the Commonwealth. Serving as the Representative’s Legislative Director, Meg has been primarily responsible for crafting several major pieces of legislation that were signed into law, including the 2014 historic gun reform package and 2018 Red Flag legislation, improvements and updates to statutes governing the National Guard, protections for female inmates, and updates to the law to ensure first responders receive critical care for traumatic stress.
Throughout her years in the State House, Meg also worked with local officials and legislators of both parties to successfully shepherd through numerous local bills for each town in the district. She also served as Representative Naughton’s chief budget analyst and worked with the Representative to secure millions of dollars in funding for every town in the district, which went towards improving parks such as Thayer Park in Lancaster, the Sterling Senior Center, transportation infrastructure in Boylston, and improvements to the Community Garden in Berlin.
Meg also has a demonstrated record of collaborating with a diverse range of stakeholders and advocates to promote progressive and democratic priorities, such as protecting reproductive rights, supporting environmental justice and combating climate change, expanding access to healthcare, and bolstering economic development to improve the lives of residents across the Commonwealth.
With over a decade of advocacy and legislative experience, and her lifetime spent living in and getting to know the communities in 12th Worcester District, Meg is ready for the challenges ahead. She looks forward to meeting with the residents of the 12th Worcester District to discuss her candidacy and the issues that matter to them.
