Lindsey Ford
Lindsey Ford lives in a cozy home in S. Grafton with her husband and son (born in 2015) and their cat. She works for the Psychiatry department at UMass Chan Medical School. Aside from working and developing in her career, she loves being with her family and friends. Her husband, son, and she are always “out and about” looking for new foods, adventures, and places to go. She found herself getting involved with Central Mass Mom for multiple reasons, but I love to connect with other Moms. We all have our strengths and challenges, but when we come together, those challenges are set aside and we have great times and meet other new friends. I love being a part of Central Mass Mom and I look forward to more events and meeting new friends.
