	Erica G. Ankstitus [email protected] Term Expiration: 5/8/2026	I grew up in Bolton and moved to Hudson when we were starting our family. Hudson interested my husband and I because we wanted to raise our children in a diverse community. Each of our children were fortunate enough to spend 2 years enrolled in the integrated preschool program here in Hudson. Now we’re very proud to say they are in kindergarten and first grade as part of the dual language immersion program at Farley Elementary School. I am an active part of Farley’s Home and School Association as well as a member of the Farley School Council. I was part of the Hudson Superintendent Screening Committee in 2023. When I’m not at home spending quality time with my family, you can find me in the gym; in my free time I greatly enjoy fitness and staying active. I am a working parent as I work full time for Eli Lilly and Company, a pharmaceutical company, for 17 years. I have my undergraduate degree in psychology and went on to earn my MBA. I also enjoy being active with my family going on hikes, scooter rides on the Hudson Bike Path, and running around on the playgrounds. As a family we love traveling and exploring. I also love taking part in events offered in Hudson – from events offered at the Hudson Public Library to the Citizen’s Academy and Women’s Self Defense classes offered at the Hudson Police Station.
