Executive Director

MA Caucus of Women Legislators

Nora is the Executive Director of the Massachusetts Caucus of Women Legislators, a bipartisan and bicameral Caucus in the Massachusetts State House. Representing over 30% of the state Legislature, Caucus membership hit an all-time high in 2021, as it works to address policy issues that predominantly impact women. 

Nora previously worked as a legislative aide to State Representative Christine Barber, managing communications and a broad set of policy issues including immigration, climate change, housing, and transportation. Nora also served as the Deputy Finance Director of the 2018 Yes on 3 ballot question campaign to uphold the state’s transgender nondiscrimination law. Winning an overwhelming majority of the vote, this campaign was, at the time, the largest and best-funded campaign for transgender rights in U.S. history. Nora has also served as a legislative aide to Cambridge Vice Mayor Jan Devereux, and was the campaign manager for her first election. 

Nora graduated from American University with degrees in Political Science, focusing on Gender and Race Politics, and Political Communications. Nora was awarded a Certificate in Women, Policy, and Political Leadership from American University.
