Representative Valli D. Geiger
Rep. Geiger
 
  Representing: Criehaven Township, Matinicus Isle Plantation, Muscle Ridge Islands,
North Haven, Owls Head (Part), Rockland
District #42

     

Rep. Valli Geiger is in her second term in the Maine House of Representatives. She serves on the Labor and Housing Committee and the Energy, Utilities and Technology Committee.

Rep. Geiger moved to Midcoast Maine when she was 21, accepting her first job as a nurse at Pen Bay Medical Center after earning a bachelor’s degree in nursing from Niagara University. Since then, she has continued to work in healthcare as a nurse, health policy analyst and health administrator. She is the former director of the Healthreach Hospice program and former clinical director for the Federally Qualified Health Centers around the state.

Rep. Geiger earned a master’s degree in sustainable design in 2014 from Boston Architectural College after growing increasingly concerned about climate change and the threats it poses to Maine and coastal communities. She designed and built her own small, passive-solar and net-zero-energy house in 2016 with the help of the Shelter Institute and Catalano Builders, and she is passionately interested in increasing the availability of housing for all members of the community.

Previously, Rep. Geiger served six years on the Rockland City Council, one year as mayor and four years on the Rockland Comprehensive Planning Commission. She lives in Rockland with her husband of over 30 years, Greg Marley.
