Sue McQuaid is the President and CEO of the Neponset Valley Chamber of Commerce. I have the opportunity of working with Sue on a regular basis as I counsel for the MSBDC in the Chamber offices.
The Neponset Valley Chamber of Commerce is located in Norwood, MA and their mission is three fold. First, to work tirelessly to ensure that the Neponset Valley region continues to grow and flourish as a business community; second, to connect the business community to the municipalities and educational facilities in our region to create a continuing stream of leaders and third, to be an advocate for this region's economic development at the local and state level, particularly in the area of transportation.
Vital to the Chamber's continued success is the strength in numbers that make and keep it a strong business force for our region. And in return, it endeavors to provide value to its members, large and small, by its breadth of programming, its committees and alliances, the multitude of networking opportunities as well as being a resource to businesses of all sizes.
Sue's recipes include Peppermint Cheesecake.
Jen Osojnicki is the owner of Jen Osojnicki, Photographer.
She is an artist, a memory maker, a historian, and a documentary specialist. She loves to study people and watch their interactions. Smiling happy faces and heartfelt embraces, stolen glances and once-in-a-lifetime chances…these are the images Jen loves to capture. It’s those soulful moments when people think you aren’t watching that are so often the most revealing. Jen gets her best shots when her subjects think she am not taking them. Jen's recipes include Jen's Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies.
