For the past 10 years, I have been associated with Essex Group, responsibilities ranging from housekeeping, plant operations, construction, demolition, budgeting, and fund-raising. I  have just recently graduated from the University of New Hampshire  with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Health Management and Policy. It has been a long time goal of mine to enter into the family business to help carry out our commitment to providing the highest quality care and services to our residents. Currently I am located at our Milford facility, participating in an Administrator in Training program. Scott Picone the acting Executive Director is my preceptor. I am grateful to have the opportunity to experience everything that Scott and the senior staff here at the Blaire House have to teach me.
