Representative Jessica Giannino honored Claudia Correa, Chief of Staff for the Office of Mayor Patrick Keefe, as the City of Revere’s 2024 Latino Excellence Award Nominee. The event took place at the Massachusetts State House on October 25, 2024, where Rep. Giannino delivered a citation to Claudia in recognition of her achievement.
Claudia oversees more than 25 city departments in Revere, and one of her main responsibilities is to ensure that Revere residents have equal access to public services. She was appointed by Mayor Keefe upon his taking office and is the first Latina to hold this role in Revere, a city where over 35% of the population is of Latino descent. Prior to her role as Chief of Staff, Claudia served as Chief of Talent and Culture and Human Resources Director for Revere. Before joining the City of Revere, Claudia held multiple leadership positions with the City of Boston, including Commissioner of Housing Inspections, Citywide Latino Liaison and East Boston Neighborhood Liaison. These positions have enabled Claudia to enhance community access to public services and civic participation.
Originally from Colombia, Claudia moved to the United States 25 years ago. In her free time, she enjoys traveling across the beautiful state of Massachusetts with her family.
“Claudia is a true example of a strong woman with an unparalleled commitment to the City; we are so lucky to have her in Revere,” said Rep. Giannino. “I am proud to honor her at this year’s event for the incredible work she is doing within Revere and the example she sets for others in our community.”
“Claudia Correa is such a strong example of excellence in any culture, however when it comes to representing her deep ties and leadership amongst Revere’s Colombian Community, she sets herself apart as a leader with the skill set to serve our entire community and is an irreplaceable asset to the Mayor’s office and its 65,000 residents,” said Mayor Keefe. “I am grateful for her unbelievable dedication to the work we do serving some of the state’s most diverse population and workforce and she is most deserving of this recognition. We are extremely grateful for Rep. Giannino’s recognition and know she selected the very best.”
