This is indeed a new year for the BHCA. I am very happy to announce that we have a new Executive Director. Patricia Tully resides in the West End Apartment complex and is a Melrose native.
| Patricia's work experience in Boston began early on with positions in the architectural and space planning fields. Her career took an interesting turn when work took her to Puerto Rico. Most of her time in Puerto Rico was spent working for the British Government as a commercial and consular officer, overseeing British business interests and attending to British citizens encountering difficulties abroad. Her duties included building relationships at many levels and organizing events for visiting consuls general and ambassadors. After many years in this position, she was awarded an Honorary MBE (Member of the British Empire) by HM Queen Elizabeth II for her consular and trade work in Puerto Rico. |

From her broad range of government and private business contacts, Patricia brings broad knowledge in design, construction and infrastructure, communication and marketing strategies, and the passion for building positive relationships along the way. Patricia is a Cum Laude graduate of Boston College with a major in Art History. She has attended graduate programs at the Boston Architectural Center and the Harvard Graduate School of Design and is active in the Beacon Hill Women's Forum. She is married to Jose Martinez, and is the mother of four grown children and grandmother to one and another on the way (a Christmas surprise).
I know you will join me in welcoming Patricia to the Beacon Hill Civic Association.
Please stop by and introduce yourself.
Happy New Year,
Keeta Gilmore
BHCA Board Chair
