Katy MacQueen
Katy MacQueen is a mom of two girls, born in 2019 and 2021. She grew up in Rhode Island, then made her way to Massachusetts for graduate school and never left. After living in Boston for 6 years, she settled down in Central Massachusetts with her husband, where they've been living since 2017. Their three favorite places to visit in Central Mass are: Davis Farmland, Marion’s Camp (Sutton’s Town Beach), and West End Creamery (adventure park, ice cream, and the best hill rolling!). Katy currently works part time outside the home and thoroughly enjoys her other days at home with her girls!
