Former Northern Essex Community College Board of Trustees Vice Chair Marianne Paley Nadel is the newest member of the NECC Foundation Board.
Paley Nadel is deeply involved in the city of Lawrence and has served as a community leader for years. After more than a decade of managing her family’s real estate holdings, she became the founding executive director of Groundwork Lawrence in 1998.

“I have had the great honor to have been a trustee for NECC for 10 years during which time we made great strides in becoming a more welcoming, equitable and inclusive institution,” says Paley Nadel. “I have worked in Lawrence for 30 years and appreciate NECC’s commitment to educating and creating opportunities for Lawrence residents including workforce development, credentialing, and especially early college opportunities.”
She holds a master’s degree in urban planning from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a bachelor’s degree from Brandeis University.
