Full Bio:

Maureen Siegmund grew up in Freehold, New Jersey, where she attended public schools and participated in community sports and summer programs. Her passion for civic engagement began in high school through the Junior Statesmen of America, where she discovered both the privilege and responsibility of citizenship. As soon as she was eligible, Maureen began working in local government, contributing across departments including human resources, consumer affairs, and the municipal court. She was also selected to support a state-local partnership implementing a new youth protection law.

​

Driven by a commitment to public service, Maureen earned a degree in Political Science and Public Affairs from Elmira College. She chose Elmira for its strong emphasis on community service and internship experience—requirements she fulfilled through the Downtown Development Council and a White House internship.

After college, Maureen and her husband Steve moved to the DC Metro area, where she worked in higher education and the nonprofit sector, supporting students, families, and alumni. For six years, she worked in client relations at a boutique government affairs firm focused on education, youth development, health, and civil rights—work that deepened her understanding of the systemic challenges facing public schools and families. Today, Maureen serves as Director of Finance for a competitive intelligence firm in the defense and aerospace sector and will earn her MBA in 2026 from the University of Illinois.

​

In addition to her professional work, Maureen remains active in her community. She serves as Vice Coordinator of the local American Heritage Girls troop and on the DC Metro Area Leadership Team. With her children, she volunteers at the SERVE food pantry and actively supports their academic, artistic, and athletic pursuits. 

​

The Siegmunds moved to Stafford County in 2005 and have lived in the Garrisonville District since 2016. Maureen, Steve, and their four children enjoy being part of the Austin Ridge neighborhood and the Anthony Burns, Rodney Thompson, Colonial Forge, North Nation, and Mountain View school communities. They are active members of St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Fredericksburg, VA. Their children participate in American Heritage Girls, Stafford Soccer, Stafford Knights Youth Football, Stafford Opera, and STEP VA.
