Who We Are

Our Economy, Our Future is a statewide movement working to build a fairer, more equitable economy in New Hampshire. We’re a coalition of community members, advocates, and organizers committed to reshaping our tax and fiscal policies so they work for everyone—not just the wealthy few. By centering those most impacted by economic injustice, we’re advancing bold, community-driven solutions that reward work over wealth and invest in a more just, sustainable future for all Granite Staters.

Throughout his career, he has managed diverse field programs across Colorado, Virginia, and Washington D.C., consistently focusing on fostering strong communication, leadership skills, and teamwork.

    Since moving to New Hampshire in 2018, Forrest has worked with the Civix Strategy Group, successfully managing the field organizing program for the NH Campaign for a Family Friendly Economy and directing the state’s largest independent expenditure door-to-door canvassing campaigns during every election cycle since 2020.

  • Born and raised in Concord, Lucas brings over a decade of experience in electoral work, coalition building, grassroots organizing, and progressive policy advocacy to the fight to flip the paradigm and advance economic and social justice in NH.

  • Attempting to recover cello playing skills, washed up mediocre D3 linebacker, a high school lacrosse coach, + a low key maple syrup connoisseur (but actually- check it out). 

    Best “once in a lifetime” concerts: Either Dolly Parton’s surprise set at Newport Folk Fest or an Avicii show a month before Levels was officially released as a single.

Alexa Carpenter

Communications + Narrative Development Manager

  • Having been involved in NH’s housing landscape, direct service work, and political advocacy since college, Alexa has seen firsthand how broken systems fail our communities. She is driven by a deep care for people and their stories—especially those often overlooked. She believes in the power of policy and storytelling to shift not just minds, but the conditions in which we live.

  • Alexa has thru‑hiked the Appalachian and Pacific Crest Trails, would always rather sleep outside than in, and loves French fries, Taylor Swift, swimming, and making new friends.

  • Longtime resident of Providence, Greta has been involved in the arts and making videos in New England for years but is excited to have those skills now be used to advocate for equity and social justice. She hopes to help tell granite staters stories and to make it clear we are all neighbors, we all deserve having our needs met, and each of us can influence outcomes by working together. 

  • Retired Roller Derby Blocker. Secret Mall Dweller. The only Delawarean you know. Little dog enthusiast. Speculative fiction fan. Once met a baby dolphin in the wild.

Throughout her career, she has fought for an economy that puts working people first — and is proud to continue that fight in the Granite State.

  • Hannah drinks iced coffee all year round, like a true honorary New Englander. She has an excellent memory for song lyrics and a mediocre memory for state capitals.
