Coach Niki was born and raised in Waterford, CT, but now lives right here in North Andover. She is running our ROOTS program here at HGR for children ages 18 months to 5 years old. She has a passion for kids and watching them grow! Her favorite color is red in the winter and yellow in the summer. When she isn’t coaching, she loves being a mom to her four children Jane, Peter, Steven, and Whitney and you will likely find her around the North Andover athletic fields, nearby hockey rinks or exploring the local hiking trails with her family.
