- Maggie Sky
"Guimel DeCarvalho is exactly the person we need on the select board and I encouraged her to run for this reason. Her equity and inclusion lens is constitutive of who she is and is evidenced in her longstanding professional and community experience including her work as a cofounder of Natick is United and as a member of the Finance Committee. She is highly skilled in Human Resources in her work as Vice President at Wayside Family Youth Services and this is critical to the management responsibilities of the select board. She is trained as a social worker which adds many skills including an informed empathy for residents who may suffer from economic and/ or personal hardship. She is a strong supporter of our schools and all of our town services. She knows how essential they are to our well being and flourishing. Natick can be better and Guimel will lead the way. She has my vote in March 30th and I hope she will have yours too."
