Meet Rob

I am honored to serve as the State Representative for the 14th Suffolk District, proudly representing the communities of Hyde Park, Roslindale, Readville, and West Roxbury in the Massachusetts House of Representatives!

My Story

After graduating Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio, with a degree in Political Science, Rob Consalvo started his career in public service nearly 30 years ago as an aide to Massachusetts Senator Edward M. Kennedy.  Rob began as an intern in the Senator’s office and later held the positions of staff assistant and press assistant working out of Senator Kennedy’s offices in Washington, DC and Boston.  Rob also served as a Legislative Aide in the office of Massachusetts State Representative Angelo M. Scaccia.
Rob’s experience in public service inspired him to launch his own bid for public office.  In 2002, he was elected to the Boston City Council in a special election.  He served 12 years as the City Councilor from District 5, which encompasses the neighborhoods of Hyde Park, Readville, Roslindale and Mattapan.  During his time on the Boston City Council, Rob chaired the committees on Public Safety, Housing and Ways and Means.  
After serving on the Boston City Council, Rob joined the administration of Mayor Martin J. Walsh and became Deputy Director for the City of Boston’s Boston Home Center, which is instrumental in executing the city’s housing and homeownership policy.  Rob also worked as Chief of Staff and Senior Advisor to the Superintendent of the Boston Public Schools where he oversaw School Committee relations, Intergovernmental Relations, Interdepartmental Relations and constituent services as well as many other special projects. 
He has also served as a Trustee on the City of Boston’s Neighborhood Housing Trust as well as a Trustee on the SEIU 888 Housing Trust. 
Today, Rob serves as the State Representative for the 14th Suffolk District representing the Boston neighborhoods of Hyde Park, Roslindale, Readville and West Roxbury.  He currently serves as Vice Chairman of the Committee on Cannabis Policy as well as he serves on the committees on Housing, Bonding, Capital Expenditures and State Assets and Emergency and Preparedness and Management.
Rob is the proud father of Amanda, Anthony and Austin and lives in Hyde Park with his children and wife Michelle.
