It was a natural  journey that led Debbi to this moment. With the pandemic closing down life as people knew it, O’Keefe recognized that when the light would appear at the end of the lockdown tunnel she wanted to help the town return to its former vibrancy. Bringing people together whether it’s for social, economic or community functions is my passion. I love the process of collaborating and partnering toward a positive experience for everyone. With enormous contacts and partnerships built over years, O’Keefe has established ConnectFairfield to do exactly that by producing, promoting and providing entertaining and meaningful events that introduce the local community to each other.

Debbi resides in Fairfield with her husband Ed and together they have two children, Emily and Evan

Debbi O’Keefe has a B.S. degree from Ithaca College in Planned Studies and Hotel Administration in conjunction with Cornell University’s School of Hotel Administration
