I look forward to strengthening these relationships and collaborating with everyone who serves Sterling to ensure that our town continues to be the quaint and welcoming town that we all love to call home.<\/p>\n<p>I, along with my husband and two daughters (ages 17 and 20) moved to Sterling from Holden five years ago to escape the never-ending building and traffic that has consumed that area, and I could not be happier to be here.<\/p>\n<p>I am originally from San Jose, California, where I worked as an executive administrator for a couple of tech startups. Currently, I work as a personal trainer by appointment only, so I have plenty of time to commit to the town of Sterling as a member of the Select Board, and all of the daily responsibilities associated with the role.<\/p>\n<p>I look forward to meeting and speaking with more members of the community, and serving as a collective voice for all. Please take a moment out of your day on May 8 to fill in the circle next to my name on the ballot. Thank you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Candidate name, town: Kirsten Newman, Sterling Position sought: Select Board I am Kirsten Newman, and I am asking for your vote to become the newest member of the Sterling Select Board.
