Board Director: Tracy Rousseau

I hail from a small country town in New York not far from NYC, I attended and graduated from Dutchess Community College, then moved to Boston to study business, and graduated with honors from Northeastern University, with a BS-BA in Business Administration. For a few years I traveled all over the east coast installing computer systems in small to large automotive dealerships to computerize their manual business systems and train staff. In 1993 I moved to Manchester, New Hampshire to accept a position as an IT manager for a large corporation. I have worked for the State of NH in a range of duties serving the citizens of NH in, unemployment services, tax revenues, and homeland security for IT support. My current duties have me in Boston, MA for United States Dept. of Labor, in the Employment & Training Administration agency, as an Unemployment Insurance Specialist.

I have been a Goffstown resident since 1999, and raised a daughter who has graduated from GHS, SNHU, and MCPHS, she is currently a covid nurse at Concord Hospital. I am a passion dancer and dance, perform and compete in Ballroom and Latin dancing in NH, MA, RI, NY, and CT. I look forward to applying my skills and giving back by volunteering for our community through the Goffstown Main Street Program.
