Hello, my name is Christy Kilton. I have worked for METS in Washington County since August 2004. I graduated from Machias Memorial High School in 1993 and was a participant in the METS program during my high school years.

With the assistance of METS, I gained acceptance to Bowdoin College and graduated magna cum laude in June of 1997 with a bachelor’s degree in psychology and sociology. During this same month I obtained my social work license from the State of Maine. I have worked for the Department of Human Services, Community Health and Counseling Services and the Maine State GEAR UP program.

I live in in the Machias area with my 2 children, Hailey and Tyler. In my spare time I like to take pictures, hang out with friends, and workout at the gym.
