We are all proud of Sheila and congratulate her on this well-deserved recognition.”

A resident of Worcester, King-Goodwin currently serves on the Fitchburg State University Board of Trustees, Massachusetts Bankers Diversity Council, the Community Foundation of North Central MA, Racial Equity Fund Committee, and the United Way of Central Massachusetts Women’s Initiative and Diversity Council. She is also a member of Yes We Care, which provides basic financial literacy skills and development programs for high school girls to support their college, career, and life plans.
