Don't Touch My Politics: Summer Series with City Councilor Candidate, Katia Norford

Over the summer, Don't Touch My Podcast says, "Don't Touch my Politics" as we sit down with political candidates running for the Worcester City Council and School Committee seats.  About Katia: My name is Katia Norford and I’m a proud Dominican living in Worcester District 4 for over 20 years. I am married to Carlos Norford and we are the proud parents of two beautiful daughters, Gisela and Shadelis. Together, my husband and I own Carlitos Barbershop, located in 925 Main St Worcester for over 18 years. Before I arrived in the United States, I ran my own business, Katia’s Salon, in my home country. I started working when I was only 13 years old, and since then, I have been passionate about serving my community. I have an Associate in science in Accounting graduated from Salter College in 2009. I have been a Board Member of the MSBA for 4 and half years, and I am also a Board Member of the MSCDC and the MSNBBA. I am also the club director at my local church. My goal is to help those around me become the best versions of themselves, and I strive to do this through my work. I am passionate about making a difference in my community and inspiring others to achieve their goals. My mission is to be an example of strength, resilience and determination to all those I encounter. I strive to empower others to make positive changes in their lives and to never give up on their dreams. I love to spend time with my family, travel and learn about different culture. Blessings.
