Rebekah Brooks wins the Woodstock Democratic Primary
Woodstock Love Knot
Artist: Willy Neumann
I discovered Woodstock ten years ago through my husband, whose family has been in Woodstock for 20 years. After spending so much time here, we finally decided to make this our home with our son.
I have served on the Woodstock Housing Committee for over two years, playing a key role in organizing our public outreach and communications, and ensuring the committee’s work is transparent, well-documented, and accessible to the broader Woodstock community.
My career has focused on improving records management, modernizing technical systems, and coordinating work across staff, boards, and volunteers. I have experience in web development, financial record-keeping, data analysis and reporting.
Below is my relevant experience to the role of Town Clerk.
Record-Keeping
Record-Keeping
I am a detail-oriented, expert record-keeper, with experience in setting up systems and databases to organize documents so that they can be easily accessible.
I organized 11 years of donor and ticket sales data for a non-profit music festival into one database, and built the whole thing myself.
I have also been responsible for budgets, managing expenses, and financial reporting. I analyze data and provide visuals to help convey their meaning.

Improving Technology
Improving Technology
As Executive Director of an arts nonprofit in Virginia, I led a website redesign which included adding online payments. I've also built several simple websites myself (including this one!), and for the past two years I have worked closely with teams that develop resource websites for state and federal agencies.
Not only can I implement modernized systems, but I also provide support through training and communication to help everyone adapt to new technology.
Currently I'm working with our Channel 23 Public Access station, which is badly in need of funding, to advocate for a better deal when we renegotiate with the cable provider, Spectrum. My goal is to upgrade the station's technology, which is analog and over 15 years old, so that we can have a functioning broadcast outlet for public, education, and government purposes. Read more about that here.

Communication and Outreach
Communication and Outreach
In April 2026, I partnered with Earth Week Woodstock's co-organizers Susan Paynter and Sylvia Bullett and launched a website to showcase the dozens of events the Town hosted over the course of one week. Check it out here. I also created promotional materials, and co-produced the main Expo Event in the Community Center. You can read about my experience working on Earth Week in this blog post.
For the Housing Committe, I produce engaging and accessible presentations, both virtual and live, as well as informational handouts, and e-newsletters. To view several examples of my public presentations, click here.

Community Service
Community Service
As a member of the Woodstock Housing Committee, I help organize our public presentations and community events. I believe our work should be known to the public and that we need the feedback of our community to make the right decisions for our town.
Volunteering on this committee has introduced me to so many active people in the community, and I've learned so much about how the town runs, how committees and can communicate more and work together, and where I can use my skills to help the town run even better.

Managing People
Managing People
For four years, I ran a nonprofit arts festival and as its Executive Director, managed a volunteer board of directors. I have also managed teams who produce high-quality and accessible digital education for universities.
I have created onboarding plans, training programs, and development opportunities for my staff and teams.
I foster positive work environments that reward teamwork, and really see my strength as helping people navigate systems and change through clear communication, collaboration, and training.
