Odessa Sanchez
Background and experience
I live in Wellesley Housing and have advocated here every day for the last 12 years.
Before Wellesley, I lived in Norwood Housing (1998-2008), where I was a five-year Tenant Association Vice President. In Wellesley, I was vice president of Tenant Association (2018). I have experience working with residents, management, and maintenance staff; attending board meetings; building community relationships; positively presenting my ideas and suggestions for improving residential life; and knowledge of state guidelines. Through my daily life, I work as a teacher and coach so I m comfortable engaging with residents and many trust me as a neighborhood resource.
